Kaiyum Ali v. State Of West Bengal

18/09/2025 D/L - 52 Court No.28 S. Kundu Allowed C.R.M.(A) 3017 of 2025 In Re: An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the BNSS, 2023. In connection with Rampurhat Police station case no. 380 of 2025 dated 16.7.2025 under Section 108 of the BNS.

In the matter of: Kaiyum Ali

...Petitioner.

Mr. Angshuman Chakraborty Mr. S. S. Saha ...for the petitioner.

Ms. Subhasree Patel Mr. Sobham Mavi ...for the State.

1. Heard the learned counsels for the petitioner and the State.

2. Perused the case diary including the statements of witnesses and the purported suicide note.

3. It will be for the Court to finally decide whether there is any element of abetment of suicide in this case.

4. However, considering the materials available in the case diary including the purported suicide note, which does not directly point fingers at anyone, I do not think that custodial interrogation of the petitioner is required in this case and I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

5. In the event of arrest, the petitioner 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 petitioner shall cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses. The petitioner shall meet the Investigating Officer once a fortnight till submission of report in final form.

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.
