July 8, 2026 6 (S/L) ARDR (Allowed) CRM (A) 1803 of 2026 In Re : An Application under Section 482 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Narkeldanga Police Station Case No. 320 of 2026 dated 09/06/2026 under Sections 109(1)/126(2)/115(2)/324(4)/305(a)/74/351(3)/3(5) of the BNS, 2023. And In Re : Papiya Ghosh @ Papiya Ghosh Biswas ... Petitioner. Adv. Sabir Aahmed, Adv. Suman Saha, Adv. Quazi Ezaz Ahmed, Adv. Soumadip Saha, Adv. Ayaan Bhattacharyya, ... for the petitioner. Adv. Bikash Kr. Singh, ... for the State. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is a lady and has been falsely implicated. She has no nexus with the alleged offence. The alleged incident occurred on 2nd May, 2022 whereas the FIR has been lodged on 9th June, 2026. The delay has not been satisfactorily explained in the FIR. The alleged incident arose out of political rivalry between the parties and the petitioner is not involved therein. Learned counsel for the State produces the case diary and opposes the prayer. The delay in lodging the complaint has not been duly explained. Though the complaint records that the delay was due to shock and trauma of the petitioner, the said fact shall be considered at the appropriate stage of trial. Investigation is still in progress. No injury report is found in the Case Diary to substantiate the alleged assault on the victim or his family members. Material available in the case diary does not justify custodial interrogation of the petitioner. She may be granted anticipatory bail. 2 Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioner namely Papiya Ghosh @ Papiya Ghosh Biswas be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only), with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also subject to the conditions laid down under Section 482(2) of the BNSS. The petitioner shall appear before the learned jurisdictional Court and pray for regular bail within two weeks from date. The application for anticipatory bail is disposed of. Case Diary be returned. All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities. (Suvra Ghosh, J.)
