I have considered the submissions made by learned counsel for both the sides and have gone through the case diary of Basistha Police Station Case No. 196/2025. 10. Though, there are sufficient materials against the petitioner in the case diary, however, as the petitioner has appeared before the Investigating Officer in connection with the instant case, i.e., Basistha Police Station Case No. 196/2025 and has cooperated in the investigation, his custodial detention in the instant case may not be necessary. 11. For above aforesaid reasons, the interim anticipatory bail granted to the petitioner, namely, Naba Deka by order dated 11.04.2025 by this Court, is hereby made absolute with Condition Nos. 2 and 3 attached to the said order remaining intact. 12. Send back the case diary. 13. With the above observation, this anticipatory bail application is disposed of. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
