C.R.M.(A) 1741 of 2026
In Re: An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the BNSS, 2023. In connection with Bagnan P.S case no. 97 of 2026 dated 18/02/2026 under Sections 329(4)/126(2)/115(2)/117(2)/109/303(2)/351(2)/3(5) of the BNS. In the matter of: Arbiya Begam & Ors. ...Petitioners. Mr. Tanmay Choudhury Ms. Ritoprita Ghosh …for the petitioners. Mr. Bhaskar Seth …for the State.
1. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. There was free fight between relatives. Injuries were suffered on both sides, but none was grievous in nature. There are case and counter case.
2. Learned counsel appearing for the State relies on the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He refers to the statements of the victims and the injury reports. One victim had suffered serious injury on her arm that required 51 stitches for repair.
3. Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary, the fact that the petitioners are the female members of the household and that there are case and counter case, I do not think that custodial interrogation of the petitioners is required in this case and I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

4. In the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each 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 further conditions that the petitioners shall cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate the witnesses.
5. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail is allowed.
6. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be given to the parties upon compliance with requisite formalities.
