Mr. S. G. Mukherjee, learned P.P.

Mr. P. P. Das Mrs. Manasi Roy ...for the State.

It is submitted by the learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner that victim is a major lady. A matrimonial suit is pending between her and her husband. Petitioner is falsely implicated in the instant case.

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 aforesaid submissions made on behalf of the petitioner, we are inclined in granting anticipatory bail to him.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) 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. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. Learned appropriate Trial Court as well as all concerned authorities shall act in terms of the copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court.
