Case No.223 of 2025 dated 18.08.2025 under Sections 115(2)/117(2)/3(5)/329(4)/62/64 of the BNS, 2023. And In the matter of: Kutubuddin Shaikh @ Yasin Shaikh … petitioner Mr. Santanu Talukdar Mr. Priyankar Ganguly Ms. Shalini Bairagi Ms. Pipasa Chakraborty … for the petitioner Mr. Ranabir Roy Chowdhury Mr. Soumya Basu Roy Chowdhuri … for the State Mr. Shahan Shah … for the de facto complainant Heard learned counsels for the parties. Perused the case diary. Considering the incriminating materials available in the case diary including the statement of the victim recorded before the learned Magistrate and the statements of witnesses and the medical report and the fact that the present petitioner is the principal accused in this case, I do not consider this to be a fit case for granting anticipatory bail. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, rejected. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of requisite formalities.
