The gist of the allegation made in the FIR dated 04.12.2025, is that when the police was conducting NAKA checking duty, the police intercepted one Tata Punch vehicle, wherein, a CID sticker was pasted on it’s windshield. On enquiry, it was revealed that the vehicle’s owner was Zamirul Haque, someone working for the CID and he uses the sticker to avoid paying toll tax at toll gates. The police found the present accused-applicant inside the vehicle and, on suspicion, he was arrested on the very same date i.e. on 14.12.2025 and since then he is behind the bar. 4. The learned counsel for the accused-applicant submits that the accused-applicant is not involved in any criminal activity as alleged in the FIR and he travelled with the owner of the vehicle, namely, Zamirul Haque. Further, it is submitted that the accused- applicant has been detained in judicial custody for last 14 days and therefore, looking into the allegation in the FIR, his further custodial detention may not be required at this stage. 5.

This Court has gone through the materials available on record and also heard the submissions of the learned counsel for the respective parties. 7. Considering all the aspects, this Court is of the considered opinion that this is a fit case, wherein, the accused-applicant should be granted bail in connection with Kokrajhar P.S. Case No. 268/2025, registered under sections 319(2)/318(4)/49 of the BNS, 2023.
