06.02.2026 Court No.28 Item No.27 ssi CRM (A) 228 of 2026 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Suraksha Nagarik Sanhita in connection with Shyampur Police Station Case No. 591 of 2025 dated 28.10.2025 under Sections 126 (2)/118 (2)/109/303(2)/351 (3)/3(5) of the BNS 2023. And In the matter of: Sk Sarif @ Sk. Serif Ali and another. …. Petitioners Mr. Bikash Ranjan Bhattacharyya, Sr. Adv. Mr. Arka Ranjan Bhattacharyya Mr. Swarup Ranjan Kar …for the petitioners Mr. Subhasish Pachhal Mr. Rameshwar Sinha …for the de facto Mr. Md. Anwar Hossain Mr. Sasanka Sekhar Saha ..for the State Learned senior counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. There was a scuffle between two groups over the issue of owing money. The principal accused was arrested and was thereafter granted bail. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the de facto complainant opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He submits that this Court had earlier rejected the anticipatory bail application of a similarly circumstanced co-accused on 02.02.2026 in CRM (A) 97 of 2026. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State strongly opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He relies on the statements of the victim, which implicate the present petitioners as the principal accused along with two others and the injury reports and CT scan 2 reports, which show fracture injuries inflicted on as many as three individuals. Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary, the alleged roles ascribed to the present petitioners and the fact that the application for anticipatory bail of a similarly circumstanced co-accused was rejected earlier, I do not consider this is to be a fit case for granting anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is rejected. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
