19/09/2025 D/L - 15 Court No.28 S. Kundu Allowed C.R.M.(A) 2920 of 2025 In Re: An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the BNSS, 2023. In connection with Gazole police station case no. 661 of 2025 dated 6.7.2025 under Sections 115(2)/3(5)/64/69/81/329(2) of the BNS. In the matter of: Sarada Prasad Tudu @ Sarada Prosad Tudu @ Susanta & Anr.

...Petitioners.

Mr. Sagar Saha Ms. Nayana Mukhopadhyay ...for the petitioners.

Mr. Wasim Akram Ms. Subrina parveen ...for the de-facto complainant.

Mr. Aniket Mitra Ms. Sana Naaz ...for the State.

1. Report filed on behalf of the State is taken on record.

2. Heard the learned counsels for the petitioners, the defacto complainant and the State.

3. Perused the case diary.

4. Considering the materials available in the case diary and the fact that admittedly there was some kind of a relationship between two adults for quite some time, I do not think that custodial interrogation of the petitioners is required in this case and I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner no. 1 who is the

principal accused and petitioner no. 2 who is the mother of the principal accused. However, the movement of the petitioner no. 1 needs to be restricted for a limited period.

5. In the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also be subject to further conditions that the petitioners shall cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses. The petitioner no. 1 shall meet the Investigating Officer once a fortnight till submission of report in final form. The petitioner no. 1 shall stay outside the jurisdiction of Gazole Police Station for a period of six months except for meeting the Investigating Officer or attending the jurisdictional Court.

6. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail is allowed.

7. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be given to the parties upon compliance with requisite formalities.
