AD 97 June 15, 2026 Ct. 28 SG CRM(A) 1591 of 2026 Partly Allowed An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Jamuria P.S. Case No.119 of 2026 dated 01.04.2026 under Sections 85/115(2)/117(2)/109/316(2)/351(2)/3(5) of the BNS. And In the matter of: Khurshid @ Seikh Khursid @ Md. Khursid and others … petitioners Ms. Sreemoyee Mukherjee … for the petitioners Mr. Somnath Adhikary … for the State Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are the parents-in-law and the two brothers-in-law of the alleged victim. Two sisters-in-law were earlier granted anticipatory bail by the learned Sessions Court. The husband is the principal accused who is not before this Court. The marriage between the couple took place two years ago. Learned counsel for the State relies on the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He refers to the FIR lodged by the victim herself, subsequent statement of the victim and other statements of witnesses including neighbours, all of which clearly implicate the present petitioners along with the husband. The injury report shows a serious injury inflicted on a vital part of the body like the head of the victim with a wooden block. The victim had to be treated in the hospital. It is alleged by the victim in the FIR that on the very next day of the assault when she was staying at her paternal home, the petitioners went there and assaulted her. 2 Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary and the fact that the petitioner No.2 is a female member of the household, while I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner No.2, the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioner Nos.1, 3 and 4 (Khurshid @ Seikh Khursid @ Md. Khursid, Sk. Rohan @ Rohan Seikh and Sk. Sohan @ Sohan Seikh) is rejected. In the event of arrest, the petitioner No.2 (Latifa Bibi @ Latim Bibi) shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (rupees ten thousand) with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482(2) of the BNSS, 2023 and on the further conditions that the petitioner No.2 shall cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of requisite formalities.
