24.07.2026 Court No.35. D/L. 262. Kausik (Allowed) CRM (M) 1486 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Bail under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023/ Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 in connection with Ballygunge GRPS Case No. 20 of 2025 dated 29.08.2025 under Sections 103(1)/303(2)/3(5) of BNS adding Section 317(2) of BNS. And In the matter of : Majit Ali Molla @ Palan Molla ……Petitioner. Mr. Debajyoti Deb Mr. Harshwardhan Kr. Jha ……for the Petitioner. Mr. Gouranga Kumar Das, APP Mr. Amartya Mohan Bhattacharya ……for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner is in custody for 212 days. His complicity in the present case is questionable. The prosecution case in the charge sheet reflects the offence could have been committed by different persons and petitioner has been implicated only because of offending mobile was handed over to him. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail. I have taken into account the complicity of the present petitioner and having considered the same, I am of the opinion that petitioner had no role to play in the offence under Section 2 103(1) of the BNS. So far as the other accusations are concerned, the same would be tested in course of the trial. Having considered the materials available, I am of the opinion that further custodial detention is unwarranted. Accordingly, prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. Accordingly, Petitioner, namely, Majit Ali Molla @ Palan Molla shall furnish bond of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand Only) with two sureties of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of Learned ACJM, Sealdah. If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date fixed before the learned Trial Court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of Kolkata Municipal Corporation without the prior permission of the learned Trial Court. Accordingly, CRM (M) 1486 of 2026 is allowed. All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order 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 with all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
