30.07.2026 IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA Item No.295 CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION Ct.No.35 dc. Allowed C.R.M. (M) 1612 of 2026 In Re : An Application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Sonarpur Police Station Case No. 118 of 2020 dated 06.02.2020 under Sections 302/195A/120B of the Indian Penal Code. And In Re : Ramesh Sardar @ Hansa Sardar @ Banda ... Petitioner. Mr. Kunal Ganguly, Mr. Subhodip Maity ... For the Petitioner. Mr. Gurudas Mitra, Mr. Utsav Dutta ... For the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is similarly situated as the other accused viz. Soumen Biswas @ Notu who has been granted bail by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Special Leave to Appeal (Crl.) No(s). 3119/2026. Learned advocate appearing for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for bail, but is unable to refute the locus of the present petitioner with that of Soumen Biswas @ Notu who has been granted bail by the Hon’ble Supreme Court. In view of the aforesaid, I am inclined to release the petitioner on bail. As such, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. 2 Accordingly, the petitioner viz., Ramesh Sardar @ Hansa Sardar @ Banda shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/-, with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Baruipur. If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date before the learned Trial Court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of the district of South 24-Parganas without prior permission of the learned Trial Court. The petitioner shall also not enter the jurisdiction of Sonarpur Police Station. Learned Trial Court would fix at least one schedule so that rest of the trial is concluded at the earliest. No unnecessary adjournment be granted to any of the parties and trial of the case would continue in spite of any resolution of the local Bar. Memo of Evidence submitted by the learned advocate appearing for the State be kept with the record. The application for bail, being CRM (M) 1612 of 2026, is, thus, disposed of. All concerned 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 with all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
