30.01.2026 Sl. No.29 Ct. 28 NB C.R.M (A) 4312 of 2025 In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with the Khardah PS Case No.94 of 2025 dated 24.02.2025 under Sections 108, 3(5), 351(2) of BNS, 2023. And In the matter of: Dipa Kumari Singh @ Sanju … petitioner Mr. Subhadeep Chatterjee, Ms. Arpita Kundu, Mr. Neelabha Roy. …for the petitioner. Mr. Saibal Bapuli, Mr. Ratul Ghosh. …for the State. Heard the learned counsels for the parties. Perused the case diary. The prosecution case is that a relationship between the alleged victim and the petitioner did not fructify. This allegedly resulted in the victim boy committing suicide. It will be for the Courts to finally decide whether there is any element of abetment of suicide in this case. However, considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary and the fact that charge sheet has already been submitted, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the present petitioner. 2 Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of Arresting Officer and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and on further condition that the petitioner shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever and shall surrender before the learned jurisdictional Court and pray for bail within four weeks from this date. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. Urgent photostat certified copies of this order may be delivered to the learned Advocates for the parties, if applied for, upon compliance of all formalities. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
