Mr. Angshuman Chakraborty, Adv.

...For the Petitioners Mr. Joydeep Roy, Adv.

Ms. Nahid Ahmed, Adv.

...For the State

1. Heard the submission of the prosecution as well as the defence counsel and peruse the case diary.

2. Carefully perused the materials on record from the Case Diary as well as the statement made under section 180 of B.N.S.S. and the content of F.I.R. Considering the role attributed by the present petitioners and the nature of offence alleged and further considering the age of the Petitioner No.4 this Court is of the view that custodial interrogation of the accused persons may not be necessary.

3. Prayer for anticipatory bail is, therefore, allowed.

4. Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs. 10,000/- with two sureties of like amount and one must be local to

the satisfaction of the arresting officer subject to the condition laid down in section 438(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 and on further condition with regard to granting anticipatory bail of the Petitioner No.4 that he shall surrender before the jurisdictional magistrate within four weeks from date and shall not leave his jurisdiction without the leave of the court and to appear before the local police station as and when asked for.

5. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of.

6. Case Diary is, however, returned.
