Ebrat Sk @ Abarat Sk v. State Of West Bengal

28.01.2026 Sl. No.40 Ct. 28 NB C.R.M (A) 37 of 2026 In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Kaliachak PS Case No.1514/2025 dated 29.08.2025 under Sections 3⁄4 of the Explosive Substances Act, 1908.. And In the matter of: Ebrat Sk @ Abarat Sk.

... petitioner Md. Wasim Akram Ms. Sabina Parveen.

...for the petitioner.

Mr. Iqbal Kabir, Md. Ezaz Akhtar.

...for the State.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case. Some other similarly circumstanced co-accused were granted anticipatory bail by this Court on 28.11.2025 in CRM (A) 3773 of 2025.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He submits that some explosive substances were recovered from a mango garden and some burnt articles were seized from the place of occurrence. However, the only material available against the petitioner is the statement of a co-accused.

Considering the above, the fact that the only material available in the case diary against the petitioner is the statement of a co-accused and the fact that two other similarly circumstanced

co-accused were granted anticipatory bail earlier, I do not think that custodial interrogation of the petitioner is required in this case and I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the present petitioner. Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of Arresting Officer and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and on further condition that the petitioner shall cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever and the petitioner shall meet the Investigating Officer once a fortnight till submission of report in final form.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. Urgent photostat certified copies of this order may be delivered to the learned Advocates for the parties, if applied for, upon compliance of all formalities.
