Md. Hazrat Ali @ Hazrat Ali v. State Of West Bengal

September 10, 2025 19 ARDR (Rejected) CRM (M) 1210 of 2025 In Re : An Application for bail under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, filed in connection with Samsherganj Police Station Case No. 147 of 2023 dated 19/05/2023 under Sections 302 of the Indian Penal Code. And In Re :

Md. Hazrat Ali @ Hazrat Ali ... petitioner.

Adv. Arnab Chatterjee, Adv. Dhanasree Biswas, Adv. Poulami Bose, ... for the petitioner.

Adv. Shounak Mondal, ...for the de facto complainant.

Adv. Rituparna Ghose, Adv. Manasi Roy, ... for the State.

The petitioner is in custody for more than two years and renews his prayer for bail.

Learned counsels for the defacto complainant and the State oppose the prayer.

Bail prayer of the petitioner was turned down on several occasions considering the material on record. This Court is informed that almost all the witnesses have been examined and date has been fixed for examination of the Investigating officer as well as evidence of PW 1 and PW 2 on recall on the basis of an application under Section 311 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for identifying the offending weapon seized in connection with the case. Therefore trial is on the verge of completion. There is no change in circumstance which warrants a favourable order for the petitioner at this stage. Accordingly prayer for bail is rejected at this stage. Learned trial Court is directed to expedite the trial without granting any unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties.

The application for bail is disposed of.

Case Diary be returned.

Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
