Sufia Bibi @ Sufiya Bibi v. State Of West Bengal

AD 26 December 22, 2025 Ct. 28 SG CRM(A) 4010 of 2025 Reject An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Murshidabad P.S. Case No.1053 of 2024 dated 14.11.2024 under Sections 85/103(1)/80/351(2)(3)/3(5) of the BNS, 2023 read with Sections 3/4 of the D.P. Act. And In the matter of:

Sufia Bibi @ Sufiya Bibi ... petitioner Mr. Tapodip Gupta ... for the petitioner Md. Anwar Hossain Mr. S.S. Saha ... for the State Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is the mother-in-law of the victim/deceased. The husband and the father-in-law are in custody. The present petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case. Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and submits that after committing murder of the victim, the petitioner and the other in-laws locked the house and absconded. A proclamation has been issued against the present petitioner.

Considering the above, the other incriminating materials available in the case diary and the fact that a proclamation has been issued against the present petitioner, I do not consider this to be a fit case for granting anticipatory bail. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, rejected.

Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of requisite formalities.
