D/L281 07.07.2026 Bpg. dismissed C.R.M. (M) 1135 of 2026 In Re: An application for Bail under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Andal GRPS Police Station Case No.11 of 2025 dated 21.08.2025 under Sections 25(1a)/25(1B)(a)/25(6)/25(8)/26 of the Arms Act and charge-sheet submitted under Sections 25(1a)/25(1B)(a)/25(6)/25(7)/25(8)/26 of the Arms Act; Bablu Ansari Versus The State of West Bengal Mr. Prabir Kumar Mitra Ms. Sudarshana Srivastava Mr. Souvick Mukherjee. …for the petitioner. Mr. Subrata Mukherjee. …for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been arrested in connection with the instant case on 31st October, 2025. Prior to the said date, petitioner was interrogated at Bihar when he was detained in connection with Banka P.S. Case No.361 of 2025. Subsequently, petitioner was granted bail in connection with the said case. However, the petitioner has been detained in connection with the instant case since October, 2025. It has further been submitted that on the basis of recoveries allegedly shown, petitioner has been unnecessarily detained and till date the investigation is continuing and although two charge-sheets have been submitted but the 2 investigating authorities till date has not supplied the documents under Section 230 of the BNSS. Petitioner’s prayer for bail was earlier rejected on 6th February, 2026. The subject matter of the case reflects relating to investigation being carried out for recovery in relation to illegal arms. Prima facie, I find that there are CDRs available so far as communication of the petitioner with another accused is concerned who is also detained in custody. Having considered the seizure which has been effected, at this stage, it will not be possible for this Court to assess regarding the genuinity of seizure which has been effected for which the petitioner has been detained in custody. Considering the gravity of the present offence as also the fact that there has been no change of circumstances till the prayer for bail of the petitioner was lastly rejected, I am not inclined to release the prayer on bail. Accordingly, CRM(M)1135 of 2026 is dismissed. All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
