By drawing the attention of this Court to the FIR lodged by the informant against the present petitioner, he has submitted that the only allegations which are levelled against the present petitioners are circulation of some intimate photographs of the informant therein. He has prayed that further custodial interrogation of the petitioners may not be necessary, as the evidence would be a matter of electronic evidence which the investigating authority would have by now recovered. 6. The learned Addl. P.P. has submitted that the Case Diary of the investigation would be made available on 17.09.2026. Page No.# 3/3 7. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, and to the fact that both the petitioners are women and, further, that the allegations are of circulation of photographs, I am of the considered opinion that the further custodial interrogation, for the present, with regard to the petitioners may not be necessary and the petitioners can be allowed the privilege of a bail, awaiting the Case Diary. 8. Accordingly, it is directed that the petitioners shall be released on bail on furnishing a bail bond of Rs.10,000/- each with one surety of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Kamrup (M), Guwahati. 9. The continuance of the privilege granted today shall be reconsidered on receipt of the Case Diary. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
