In the matter of : Rajesh Sardar.

.... Petitioner.

Mr. Sumanta Das.

...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Tanmoy Kr. Ghosh, Mr. Arindam Sen.

...for the State.

Heard the learned Counsels appearing on behalf of the parties.

It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner he is in custody for about 111 days and investigation is complete. Accordingly, he prays for bail.

Learned Advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses do not disclose torture for demand of dowry. In view of the aforesaid circumstance and the period of detention suffered by the petitioner, we are inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

Accordingly, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Nadia at Krishnanagar

subject to condition that the petitioner shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

In the event the petitioner fails to appear before the Trial Court without any justifiable cause, the trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court.

The application for bail is, thus, disposed of. (Ananya Bandyopadhyay,J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
