Bhadru Roy Versus The State of West Bengal
Mr. Abir Ranjan Neogi Mr. Karan Bapuli Mr. Tirtharaj Ghoshal. …for the petitioner. Mr. Aditya Tiwari Ms. Namrata Chatterjee. …for the State. Mr. Rishav Kr. Singh Mr. Soumalya Dutta Mr. Mahek Jaiswal. …for the de facto complainant. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for 2 years 14 days. Earlier, the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected. Till date only 2 witnesses out of the cited 16 witnesses have been examined. Petitioner, as such, prays for bail. Learned advocate for the de facto complainant opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the petitioner had been taking time and delaying the proceedings. It has further been canvassed
2 that it was the petitioner who was responsible for the alleged offence and there are overwhelming materials to support the case. Learned advocate for the State has produced the case diary and drawn the attention of the Court to the statement of the witnesses along with the injury report. Having regard to the period of detention of the present petitioner and without entering into the merits of the case and the fact that there are no criminal antecedents of the present petitioner, I am inclined to release the petitioner on bail. As such, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. The petitioner, namely, Bhadru Roy shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand only) with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of the learned ACJM, Raiganj, Uttar Dinajpur. If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date before the learned trial court and shall not leave the district of Uttar Dinajpur without prior permission of the learned trial court. Additionally, the petitioner shall not enter the jurisdiction of Kaliyaganj Police Station without the permission of the learned trial court.
In case there are violations of any of the conditions, learned trial court would be at liberty to cancel the bail of the petitioner without further reference to this Court. Learned trial court would expedite the process of examination of all the witnesses and conclude the trial within a specified schedule. With the aforesaid observations, CRM(M)2886 of 2025 is allowed. 3
