28.07.2026 Serial no. 274 [G.S.D] CRM (M) 1550 of 2026 In re : An Application for Bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/under Section 483 of the BNSS, 2023 in connection with Sessions Case No. 44 of 2025 in connection with GR Case No. 3457 of 2024 arising out of Raghunathganj PS Cae No. 1295 of 2024 dated 13.10.2024 u/s 329(4)/115(2)/117(2)/118(1)/118(2)/109/103(1)/3(5) of the BNS. -And- In the matter of : Raju Mandal @ Raju Mondal … Petitioner(s) Mr. Tapodip Gupta Ms. Ushashi Chattopadhyay … for the Petitioner(s) Mr. Kalidas Saha … for the State-respondent(s) Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the evidence of the vulnerable witnesses is over. The earlier order reflects that the petitioner was granted liberty to approach the court after the evidence of the CSW2 and CSW 10 is over. Learned advocate for the State submits that the evidence of CSW2 and CSW 10 has been completed. Having considered the fact that the petitioner is in custody for one year nine months and some other accused persons have been released on bail, I am inclined to release the petitioner on bail as some time will be required to take the trial to its logical conclusion. 2 Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is Allowed. Accordingly, the petitioner viz, Raju Mandal @ Raju Mondal shall be released on bail upon furnishing 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 the Learned ACJM, Jangipur. If on bail, the petitioner shall also make himself physically available on each and every date so fixed by the learned trial court and shall not leave the district of Murshidabad without prior permission of the learned trial court. Accordingly, CRM (M) 1550 of 2026 is allowed. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon’ble High Court, Calcutta. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties subject to compliance with all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.) 3
