Versus

The State of West Bengal & Anr.

Mr. Sumanta Das.

...for the petitioner.

Ms. Shaila Afrin Ms. Rituparna Saha.

...for the State.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for more than one year and the charges after being framed evidence of the victim as well as the mother of the victim is over.

Learned advocate for the State has produced the case diary.

I have taken into account the statement of the victim under Section 183 of the BNSS as also the deposition of the victim and the mother as has been submitted by the learned advocate appearing for the petitioner.

Having regard to the period of detention of the present petitioner and the evidence which has surfaced, I am of the view that further detention of the petitioner during the course of trial is unwarranted. As such, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is

allowed. The petitioner, namely, Tanmay Roy shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand only) with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of the learned Judge, Special Court under POCSO Act, Nadia. If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date fixed by learned trial court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of the district of Nadia without the prior permission of the learned trial court. Petitioner shall not enter the jurisdiction of Krishnaganj Police Station without the prior permission of the learned special court. Accordingly, CRM(M) 2850 of 2025 is allowed.

Case diary be returned to the learned advocate appearing for the State.

Report submitted by the State be kept with the record. All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of all requisite formalities.
