Verma, Advocate ----- 06/23.06.2025: This is an application filed by the petitioners praying for grant of anticipatory bail in terms of sections 482 and 484 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, as the petitioner has been allegedly implicated in connection with PCR/Complaint Case No. 20 of 2018, for the offences punishable under sections 120B, 420, 467, 325, 379, 504/34 of the Indian Penal Code, pending in the Court of learned Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Madhupur. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, the learned counsel for the OP No.2 and the learned counsel for the State. 3. The learned counsel for the State and the learned counsel for the opposite party no.2 oppose the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner. 4. The case arises out of a complaint and the petitioner has approached this court only after cognizance has been taken and summons has been issued. 5. Thus, I find that there is no apprehension of the petitioner being arrested, this anticipatory bail application is absolutely misconceived. 6. Accordingly, the instant anticipatory bail application stands disposed of. 7. Petitioner is directed to appear before the learned Court below, who will pass order in the light of the judgment passed by the Hon’ble Supreme Court. (ANANDA SEN, J. ) KNR/
