Jini, learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State respondent. 2. This is an application filed under Section 482 of the BNSS, praying for grant of pre-arrest bail to the accused/applicant, who is apprehending arrest in connection with Khonsa P.S. Case No. 19/2025, under Section 69 of the BNS. 3. The Case Diary has been received and I have perused the same. 4. It is submitted by Mr. Bhattacharjee, learned counsel for the accused/applicant, that vide order dated 13.11.2025, the accused/applicant was granted interim pre-arrest bail, directing that he be released on bail on furnishing a bail bond of Rs. 15,000/- (Rupees fifteen thousand only) with one surety of like amount, with further direction to appear before the I.O. in connection with the case. It is submitted that after obtaining the interim pre- arrest bail, the applicant appeared before the I.O of the case and on his appearance, he was arrested, his statement was recorded, and thereafter he was released on bail on the strength of the order dated 13.11.2025. It is further submitted that he is ready and willing to cooperate with the I.O. in the further investigation of the case if the interim pre-arrest bail is made absolute. 5. In this regard, Ms. Jini, learned Additional Public Prosecutor, by referring to the status report, submits that the accused/applicant did appear before the I.O. after obtaining interim pre-arrest bail on 15.11.2025, cooperated in the investigation, and was subsequently released on interim pre-arrest bail.

6. I have considered the submissions of learned counsel for both sides, and also perused the Case Diary. It is evident that the accused/applicant has been cooperating with the I.O. in the investigation and his statement has already been recorded. In view of the above, it appears that custodial remand of the accused/applicant may not be required.
Hence, I find it appropriate to allow the prayer made by the learned counsel for the accused/applicant. Accordingly, the interim pre-arrest bail granted to the accused/applicant vide order dated 13.11.2025 is hereby made absolute, on the same terms and conditions. 7. In terms of the above, this anticipatory bail application stands disposed of. 8. The Case Diary be sent back. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
