And In Re : Alimpan Nag @ Aalimpan Nag ….. petitioner Mr. Sourav Chatterjee Mr. Soumya Nag ..…for the petitioner Mr. Kausik Biswas Ms. Suruchi Saha ..…for the State Mr. Debanshu Ghorai ….. for the de facto complainant 1.

They met each other and started living together as husband and wife. Differences and disputes broke out and the petitioner was assaulted. Accordingly she withdrew from the company. In retaliation petitioner has been falsely implicated. He prays for anticipatory bail. 2. Learned Counsel for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. 3. Learned Counsel for the de facto complainant opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and submits petitioner Signed By : SHANTANU DAS High Court of Calcutta 19 th of February 2025 05:14:22 PM 2 had made false promise of marriage and cohabited with the victim. 4. We have considered the materials on record. Both parties are adult and educated. They had living relationship and cohabited together. Subsequently they broke up and the present case has been registered. Whether cohabitation was out of romantic relationship or was on the false promise of marriage requires to be assessed at the appropriate stage of the proceeding. Under such circumstances we are of the opinion custodial interrogation of the petitioner is not necessary and he may be granted anticipatory bail. 5. Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/-, with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and on further condition that he shall meet the investigating officer once in a week until further orders. He shall appear before the jurisdictional court and pray for regular bail within a period of four weeks from date. 6. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. (Gaurang Kanth, J.)
