Heard learned Advocates for both the parties. 2.

We have considered the materials on record. Statement of the victim is exonerative in nature. In light of the aforesaid, we are of the opinion custodial interrogation of the accused/petitioner is not necessary and he may be granted anticipatory bail. 3.

Accordingly, we direct in the event of arrest, the accused/petitioner, namely Koushik Ghosh, be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten thousand only), with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and also subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 and on further condition that the petitioner shall appear before the jurisdictional court and pray for regular bail within four weeks from date. 4.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. (Gaurang Kanth, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.) Signed By : ARUP KUMAR DAS High Court of Calcutta 18 th of November 2024 04:05:43 PM
