Rakib (Allowed) CRM (A) 2664 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Anticipatory Bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Tapan Police Station case no. 371 of 2026 dated 15.06.2026 under Sections 103/80/85/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhits, 2023. And In the matter of : Sribas Barman @ Sribash Barman & Ors. ……Petitioners. Mr. Kaushik Choudhury Mr. Dwaipayan Panda ......for the Petitioners. Mr. Soumak Bera Mr. Arka Mukherjee ……for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner no.1 is the father-in-law; petitioner no.2 is the uncle-in- law; petitioner no.3 is the mother-in-law; petitioner no.4 is the aunt- in-law and petitioner no.5 is neighbour of the deceased. Learned advocate appearing for the Stage opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. I have taken into account the statements which are appearing along with the post-mortem report. It has been informed that the husband has been arrested and is in custody. Having considered the overall circumstances, I am of the opinion that custodial detention of the present petitioners may not be warranted. Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners namely, Sribas Barman @ Sribash Barman; Sufal Barman @ Bifal Barman; Shantana Barman; Saloka Barman @ Shaluka Barman and Jharna Barman is allowed. 2 As such, in the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer on such terms and conditions as he deems fit and proper subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. As the investigation of the case is still in progress, the petitioner nos. 1 and 2, within a period of ten days from date, shall make themselves available before the Investigating Officer of the case and thereafter, the Investigating Officer of the case, if required, would fix subsequent dates for presence of the petitioner nos. 1 and 2 for the sake of investigation. So far as the other petitioners are concerned, they shall make themselves available as and when required by the investigating officer of the case for the sake of investigation. With the aforesaid observations, CRM (A) 2664 of 2026 is allowed. All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order 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.)
