Nazrul Haque Fakir @ Naju v. State Of West Bengal

24.09.2025 Ct.No.34 b.das Rejected C.R.M. (M) 1578 of 2025 In Re : An application for bail under Section 483 of BNSS, 2023 filed in connection with Magrahat Police Station Case No.307 of dated 29.07.2023 under Sections 341/324/326/307/302/120B of the Indian Penal Code. And In Re : Nazrul Haque Fakir @ Naju ... Petitioner.

Mr. Uday Sankar Chattopadhyay Ms. Rajashree Tah Ms. Trisha Rakshit Ms. A. Dutta Ms. B. Chakraborty Ms. S. Parveen ... for the petitioner.

Mr. Bitasok Banerjee Mr. Sandip Kundu ... for the State.

Mr. Satadru Lahiri Mr. Jyotirmay Talukdar Mr. Poulam Dey ...for the de facto complainant.

Heard learned counsels for the parties.

The petitioner is in custody for more than 2 years and prays for bail.

Learned counsels for the State and the de facto complainant oppose the prayer.

I have considered the material on record. The petitioner appears to be the principal conspirator who instigated the alleged offence. The victim was chopped to death. Eye witnesses have seen the petitioner at the place of occurrence instructing the principal assailant to commit the offence. The witnesses have corroborated their earlier statements before the learned trial Court. The petitioner is in custody for more than 2 years. Offence, if proved, shall

attract mandatory life imprisonment. Also, this Court is informed that several General Diaries have been lodged as the associates of the petitioner have been threatening the witnesses.

In view of the above, 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 thus disposed of. Case diary be returned.

All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
