07.11.2025 Court No.28 Item No.54 ssi CRM (A) 3319 of 2025 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita in connection with Basirhat PS Case No.590 of dated 05.07.2025 under Sections 329(3)/118(1)/117(2)/110/351(3)/3(5) of the BNS, 2023. And In the matter of: Babai Dey @ Tanay Dey ....Applicant/Petitioner.

Mr. Gourav Nath Mr. Subhajyoti Chandra ...for the petitioner Md. Anowar Hossain Mr. Asraf Mandal ...for the State Heard the learned counsels for the parties.

Perused the case diary.

Considering the materials available in the case diary, the alleged role ascribed to the present petitioner and the fact that the principal accused was arrested and thereafter granted bail, 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. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is allowed.

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 the Arresting Officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482(2) of the BNSS, 2023 and on further condition that the

petitioner shall co-operate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate the witnesses. The petitioner shall meet the Investigating Officer once a fortnight till submission of report in final form.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
