Mr. Parthapratim Das Ms. Manasi Roy Md.

Accordingly, we direct that 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 the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Malda, subject to the condition that the petitioner shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall not intimidate the witnesses and/or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

In the event the petitioner fails to appear before the trial court without justifiable cause, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel her bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court.

The application for bail is, accordingly, allowed. (Suvra Ghosh, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
