D/L19 14.07.2026 Bpg. C.R.M. (M) 2892 of 2025 In Re: An application for bail under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Karimpur Police Station Case No.71 of 2025 dated 24.04.2025 under Section 76 of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 and Section 8 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012 and charged framed under Section 126(2)/65(2) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 and Sections 08/06 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences, Act, 2012; Rajesh Mondal @ Rajesh Mandal Versus The State of West Bengal & Anr. Mr. Atis Kumar Biswas Mr. Amit Singh Mrs. Jyoti Agarwal. …for the petitioner. Mr. L. Vishal Kumar. …for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for more than 1 year two months and the trial of the case is not progressing although charges have been framed. Prosecution has relied upon 11 witnesses in order to prove its case, as such, which will take time to take the trial to its logical conclusion. Accordingly, the petitioner be released on bail on any stringent conditions. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the deposition of the victim is in progress. I have taken into account the materials appearing in the case diary particularly the statement of the victim under Section 2 183 of the BNSS as also the medico legal examination report. Having considered the same, I direct the learned special court to release the petitioner on bail after the evidence/deposition of the victim is over. Learned special court would impose such conditions as he deems fit and proper for ensuring further appearance of the accused in course of the trial. The prayer for bail of the petitioner before this Court is rejected at this stage. However, the learned trial court will adhere the directions passed above. With the aforesaid observations, CRM(M)2892 of 2025 is disposed of. Memo of Evidence and report submitted by the State be kept with the record. 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.)
