17. 08 . 2020 BP/BR Sl.57 CRM 5594 of 2020 With CRAN 3952 of 2020 (Via Video Conference) In re: An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 in connection with Maynaguri Police Station Case No. 184 of 2020 dated 25.05.2020 under Sections 306/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

In the matter of :

Rup Kumar Sarkar @ Apu...petitioner Mr. Sudip Guha ..for the petitioner.

Mr. Aditi Shankar Chakraborty Mr. Tapan Bhattacharjee ..for the State.

The victim committed suicide by hanging as the family members of the victim girl refused to give her marriage with the petitioner with whom she had a love relation. It appears from the materials on record that the FIR was lodged after a lapse of two months of the incident. Two accused persons have already been released on anticipatory bail by a co-ordinate bench of this court on 7th July, 2020 in CRM 4770 of 2020. In view of such circumstances, we are inclined

to release the petitioner on anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, we allow the prayer for anticipatory bail. In the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs. 10,000/-(Rupees Ten Thousand only) each with two sureties, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and subject to the condition that the petitioner shall cooperate with the investigation.

The application for anticipatory bail being C.R.M. 5594 of 2020 and C.R.A.N. 3952 of 2020 are disposed of.
