21.08.2026 Ct. No. 446 Sl. No.2 akd [ALLOWED] C. R. M. (A) 2254 of 2026 In Re: An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed on 10.07.2026 in connection with Tarakeswar Police Station Case No. 199 of 2026 dated 08.05.2026 under Sections 126(2)/117(2)/115(2)/109/351(3)/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. (G.R. Case No. 851 of 2026) And In Re: Sk. Hasan Ali … … Petitioner Mr. Ujjal Roy Mr. Shuvajit Roy … … for the petitioner Mr. Narattam Acharyya … … for the State 1. This is an application for anticipatory bail filed under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, in connection with Tarakeswar Police Station Case No. 199 of 2026, dated 08.05.2026, under Sections 126(2)/117(2)/115(2)/109/351(3)/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. 2. Mr. Roy, learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the present petitioner has been falsely implicated in the instant case. He further submits that some of the accused persons, who were nabbed in the course of investigation, have been enlarged on bail. Referring to the order passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Chandernagore, Hooghly, in Criminal Miscellaneous Case No. 263 of 2026, he submits that the learned Judge observed that the injury report available in the case diary does not reflect that the injuries sustained by the victim are life-threatening. In such conspectus, according to him, custodial interrogation of the present petitioner is not necessary. 2 3. Mr. Acharyya, learned advocate appearing for the State produces the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner on the basis of the materials available therein. He submits that the injury report reflects that the victim suffered injuries on the vital parts of the body and that the petitioner was involved in the alleged offence. 4. Heard the learned Advocates appearing for both the parties and perused the case diary as well as the other materials on record including the injury report. 5. Undisputedly, the other co-accused persons are on bail. The incident allegedly occurred in the presence of direct evidence. Considering the nature of the injuries as reflected in the medical documents, I am of the opinion that custodial interrogation of the petitioner is not necessary and that he may be granted anticipatory bail. 6. Accordingly, I direct that in the event of arrest, the accused/petitioner, namely, Sk. Hasan Ali, be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten thousand only), with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Chandannagar, Hooghly and also subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. 7. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. (Partha Sarathi Chatterjee, J.)
