28.11.2025 Court No.28 Item No.71 ssi CRM (A) 3749 of 2025 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Suraksha Nagarik Sanhita in connection with Paikar PS Case No.578 of dated 30.10.2025 under Sections 85/115(2)/117(2)/ 3(5) of the BNS 2023.

And In the matter of: Asadul Sekh @ Asadul Sk. & others. ....Applicants/Petitioners.

Ms. Babita Pramanick ...for the petitioners Mr. Sandip Chakraborty Mrs. Kanchan Roy ..for the State Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. The petitioners are the husband, the parents in law and the other in laws of the alleged victim. The FIR has been lodged after 13 years of marriage. Earlier, the petitioner no.1 was constrained to consume poison because of the troubles created by the wife. In fact, a missing diary was lodged for the wife after which it was found that she had gone out to file an FIR. The FIR has been lodged against all and sundry in the in-laws' house.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. She relies on the statements of the victim and other witnesses.

Considering the materials available in the case diary and the allegations and counter allegations, 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 petitioners.

Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is allowed.

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 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 conditions that the petitioners shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses and shall co-operate with the investigation. The petitioner nos. 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 8 shall meet the I.O. once a fortnight till submission of report in final form.

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