Sapna Konar @ Swapna Koner And ORS. v. State Of West Bengal

AD 62 January 30, 2026 Ct. 28 SG CRM(A) 61 of 2026 Allowed An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Mogra P.S. Case No.566 of 2025 dated 22.11.2025 under Sections 85/316(2)/79/117(2)/303(2)/351(2)/3(5) of the BNS and Section 4 of the D.P. Act.

And In the matter of:

Sapna Konar @ Swapna Koner and others ... petitioners Mr. Subhrajyoti Ghosh ... for the petitioners Mr. Siladitya Banerjee Ms. Sanjida Sultana ... for the State Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are the in-laws of the alleged victim. Before registration of the FIR, the husband had passed away. The petitioners have been falsely implicated in this case. Learned counsel for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail, relies on the statements of the witnesses and submits that there is no injury report present in the case diary.

Considering the above and the other materials available in the case diary, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

In the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (rupees ten thousand) each 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 petitioners shall cooperate with the investigation, shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses and the petitioner Nos.3, 6, 9 and 11 shall meet the investigating officer once a fortnight till submission of report in final form.

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.
