And In Re: Insan Ali Molla Petitioner Mr. Arunava Ganguly For the Petitioner Mr. Kunal Ganguly For the State

1. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has been falsely implicated.

2. The learned Counsel for the State has produced the case diary and opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail.

3.

Considering the statement of the victim recorded under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure which prima facie exonerates the petitioner, On the earlier occasion, we directed the Investigating Agency to produce post mortem report. It appears from the post mortem report that the cause of death is "deceased condition of pancreas" which prima facie ruled out any foul play. There has been case and counter case between the parties. 4.

Considering the materials available in the case diary and the statement of the victim recorded under Section 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure which Signed By :

prima facie exonerates the petitioner, we are of the view that the custodial interrogation of the present petitioner is not necessary. 5.
