Apurba Biswas @ Apurba Kumar Biswas v. The State Of West Bengal
AD 81 January 21, 2026 Ct. 28 SG CRM(A) 4359 of 2025 Allowed An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Gazole P.S. Case No. of 781 of 2025 dated 09.08.2025 under Sections 126(2)/117(2)/109/351(2) of the BNS. And In the matter of:
Apurba Biswas @ Apurba Kumar Biswas ... petitioner Mr. Arup Kumar Bhowmick ... for the petitioner Md. Anwar Hossain Mr. Subham Bhagat ... for the State Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that a quarrel took place between neighbours. The injury suffered was not grievous at all.
Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and relies on the statements of the victim and other witnesses and the injury reports. He submits that the injuries do not appear to be grievous. Charge-sheet has been submitted.
As per the statements of the witnesses, the incident happened quite at the heat of the moment.
Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary and the fact that a charge-sheet has been submitted, although I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner, his movement shall also be restricted for a limited period.
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 surrender before the jurisdictional court within four weeks from this date and pray for bail, attend the jurisdictional court regularly, shall stay beyond the jurisdiction of Gazole Police Station for a period of two months except for attending the jurisdictional court and for meeting the investigating officer 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.
