12. 03-06-2025 (ct. no.06) pp/tm. (allowed) CRM (M) 575 of 2025 In re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 read with Section 483 of the Bhartiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita 2023 in connection with Dasnagar Police Station Case No.106 of 2025 dated 16-05-2025 under Sections 310(4)/310(5) of B. N. S. 2023. - A n d - In the matter of : Abdul Imran .... Petitioner. Mr. Anil Kumar Chattopadhyay … For the Petitioner. Mr. Rana Mukherjee, ld. APP, Mr. Tirupati Mukherjee
… For the State. 1. It is said on behalf of the accused petitioner that he is completely innocent and has been falsely implicated with the crime. He was arrested on 17.05.2025 and since then he is in custody. There is no specific allegation against this accused- petitioner and no purpose will be served by detaining the petitioner further behind the bar for the sake of custodial interrogation. So, he prays that the accused petitioner may be enlarged on bail. 2. Learned advocate for the State raises objection by submitting that there are sufficient incriminating materials in the case diary which reflects about the prima facie involvement of this petitioner in the alleged offence. Investigating process is at nascent stage and if at this stage this accused petitioner is enlarged on bail, then there is every possibility of hampering the progress of investigation. 3. I have consulted the materials gathered in the case diary by the investigating agency. 2
4. It appears that the instant case was started on the basis of a complaint lodged by the de facto complainant for the alleged commission of offence under section 310(4)/310(5) of BNS. I have also consulted with other materials which have been collected by the investigating agency during the course of investigation and after considering the same I am of the opinion that no fruitful purpose will be served by detaining the accused petitioner behind the bar for the sake custodial interrogation. 5.
Accordingly, I direct that the petitioner, namely, Sujit Chowdhury @ Vijoy shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand), with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of learned CJM Howrah on condition that the petitioner shall not make threat, promise and induce to any of the charge sheeted witnesses and shall appear before the trial Court on every date of hearing. It is further directed that the petitioner shall not leave the jurisdiction of Dasnagar PS and shall report the investigating officer once in a week until further order. 6. In the event the petitioner fails to comply with any of the conditions stipulated above, the trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel the bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court. 7. The application for bail is, thus, allowed. 8. All parties shall act on the server copies of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. 3
9. Criminal Section is directed to supply certified copies of this order to the parties, if applied for, upon compliance of all necessary formalities. (Prasenjit Biswas, J.) 4
