C.R.M. 7093 of 2020 With C.R.A.N.1 of 2020 (Via Video Conference) In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Jalangi P. S. Case No.150 of 2020 dated 10.04.2020 under Sections 22 ( C )/29 of the N.D.P.S. Act.

In the matter of : Saiful Mondal @ Safi Mandal. ... Petitioner.

Mr. Anisur Rahaman.

...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Ranabir Roy Chowdhury, Mr. Mainak Gupta.

.....for the State.

Heard the learned Advocates appearing for the parties. Petitioner undertakes to affirm and stamp the petition/application as per Rules within a month of resumption of normal functioning of the Court.

Subject to such undertaking, the application is taken up for hearing through video conference.

Accordingly, the application, being CRAN 1 of 2020, is disposed of.

Having considered the materials on record and keeping in mind the extent of complicity of the petitioner in the alleged crime in the light of the submission that no narcotic substance was recovered from the possession of the petitioner and as the co-accused persons have been granted pre-arrest bail, we are inclined to extend the same privilege to the petitioner.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest the petitioner, viz., Saiful Mondal @ Safi Mandal shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/-, with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. This application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of.

All concerned parties shall act in terms of the copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court. (Kausik Chanda,J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
