Susweta Sinha Roy v. State Of West Bengal

A 70 December 1, 2025 Ct. 28 SG CRM(A) 3794 of 2025 Allowed An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Jangipara Police Station Case No.383 of 2025 dated 30.09.2025 under Sections 108/352/351(3)/3(5) of the BNS. And In the matter of:

Susweta Sinha Roy ... petitioner Mr. Pratip Mukherjee Mr. Prasanta Kumar Banerjee Ms. Indrani Nandi Mr. Purnankar Biswas ... for the petitioner Mr. Iqbal Kabir Mr. Parvej Anam ... for the State Heard learned counsels for the parties.

Perused the case diary.

The prosecution case is that in spite of having a romantic relationship with the victim for five years, the petitioner decided to part ways and had a relationship with another. Some money was also taken from him. This prompted the victim to commit suicide.

It will be for the Courts to finally decide whether there is any element of abetment of suicide in this case. However, considering the above and the other materials available in the case diary, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

In the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (rupees ten thousand) 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 the further conditions that the petitioner shall cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of requisite formalities.
