And In the matter of: Ashish Kumar Biswas ....petitioner.

Ms. K. Roy ...for the petitioner.

Mr. I. Ali, Mr. M.F.A. Begg ...for the State.

It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that there is a commercial dispute between the parties and there is inordinate delay in lodging the first information report. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail.

Having considered the materials on record and bearing in mind the nature of allegations in the light of the submission m made on behalf of the petitioner, we are inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

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 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, 19731973. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. (Suvra Ghosh, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
