And In the matter of: XXX and another … petitioners Mr. Asraf Mandal … for the petitioners Mr. Ajay Ray Mr. Bibaswan Mukherjee … for the State 1. Affidavit of service filed by the petitioners is taken on record. 2. Despite service no one appears on behalf of the de facto complainant. 3. Learned advocate for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are the sister-in-law and the father-in-law of the alleged victim. The victim committed suicide. She was 14 years of age. On going through the materials available in the case diary, it transpires that the State recorded the statement under Section 183 of the BNSS as well as the statements of neighbours recorded under Section 180 of the BNSS which placed the present petitioners at the date and time of the incident.

In such circumstances and on the basis of the aforesaid materials available in the case diary, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. 5. The Prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is rejected. 6. CRM (A) 2395 of 2026 is disposed of. 7.
