D/L271 27.07.2026 Bpg. C.R.M. (M) 1528 of 2026 In Re: An application for bail under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (Corresponding to section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure) filed in connection with Haroa Police Station Case No.299 of 2023 dated 13.08.2023 under Sections 302/379/120B of the Indian Penal Code and Sections 25/17 Arms Act; Amit Gayen alias Amrita Versus The State of West Bengal Mr. Angshuman Chakraborty Mr. Shashanka Shekhar Saha. ...for the petitioner. Mr. Rajendra Banerjee Mr. Rajesh Kr. Shah. …for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for about 3 years and he has not been named in the proceedings particularly during the stage of deposition by the witnesses on whom the prosecution has relied upon. There is no complicity of the petitioner and he has been framed by the investigating agency. On the other hand, learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that there are materials to suggest that firearms were recovered from the house of the present petitioner. I have taken into account the gruesome manner in which the victim was fired to death. Having regard to the gravity and 2 heinousness of the present offence, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner in CRM(M)1528 of 2026 is dismissed. Memo of Evidence 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.)
