20.07.2026 Serial no. 940 [G.S.D] CRM (A) 1808 of 2026 In re : An Application under Section 482 of the BNSS, 2023/under Section 438 of the Cr.P.C. in connection with Raiganj PS Case No. 427 of 2026 dated 01.05.2026 u/s 109(1)/115(2)/118(2)/126(2)/3(5)/303(2)/324(4)/351( 2) of BNS, being GR Case No. 1054 of 2026 and Criminal Misc Case No. 790 of 2026. -And- In the matter of : Saddam Hossain @ Saddam Ali &Ors. … Petitioner(s) Mr. Nirupam Dhali … for the petitioner(s) Mr. Mukesh Kr. Gupta … for the State-respondent(s) Learned advocate appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have been falsely implicated on trivial issues. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and by producing the case diary has drawn the attention of the court to the treatment sheet. The treatment sheet of the injured refers to the names of petitioner nos. 1 and 2. So far as the other accused persons are concerned, there are no direct accusations against them. 2 Having considered the same, I am inclined to allow the prayer for anticipatory bail of petitioner nos. 3 to 7. However, so far as the prayer for anticipatory bail of petitioner nos. 1 and 2 [Saddam Hossain @ Saddam Ali & Sultan Hosen @ Sultan Ali] is concerned, the same is rejected. Hence, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner nos. 3 to 7 is Allowed. Accordingly, I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner nos. 3 to 7 [Sahajan Sekh @ Sahajahan Ali, Irsad Ali @ Ersad Ali, Mutaleb Husen @ Motaleb Ali, Muktar Hossain @ Muktar Ali and Sohel Rana] be released on anticipatory bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/-(Rupees Twenty Thousand only) each, with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer of the case and also subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. and/or under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. As the investigation of the case is still in progress, the petitioner no. 3 to 7 shall meet with the investigating officer of the case once in every ten days till the Report in Final Form/ charge-sheet is submitted before the learned jurisdictional court. 3 Accordingly, CRM (A) 1808 of 2026 is Partly Allowed. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon’ble High Court, Calcutta. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
