And In the matter of: Suntu Sk. @ Santu Sk.

... petitioner Mr. Rana Mukherjee, Mr. Soujanyo Pattanayak.

...for the petitioner.

Mr. Binay Kr. Panda, Mr. S. S. Saha.

...for the State.

Heard the learned counsels for the parties.

Perused the case diary.

Considering the materials available in the case dairy including the injury report which does not show inflicting of any grievous injury, 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 present petitioner.

Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of Arresting Officer and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha

Sanhita and on further condition that petitioner shall cooperate with the investigation and to meet the Investigating Officer once a week till submission of report in final form and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever. The application for anticipatory bail being C.R.M. (A) 3016 of 2025 is, thus, allowed.

Urgent photostat certified copies of this order may be delivered to the learned Advocates for the parties, if applied for, upon compliance of all formalities.
