05.08.2026 Court No.35. D/L. 247. Kausik (Allowed) CRM (M) 1649 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Bail under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023/ Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 in connection with Sandeshkhali Police Station Case No. 310 of 2025 dated 19.07.2025 under section 179/180/340(2)/61(2) of BNS and addition Section 111(2)/316(2)/318(2)/319(2) of BNS, 2023. And In the matter of : Tista Sen @ Muniya ……Petitioner. Mr. Kallol Kumar Basu Mr. Md. Jannat Ul Firdous Mr. Rajsekhar Hota Ms. Pramita Banerjee ……for the Petitioners. Mr. Subrata Mukherjee Mr. Neel Chakraborty ….for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner is in custody for more than a year. Charge sheet has already been submitted before the jurisdictional Court. Further investigation of the case is in progress. Learned advocate submits that, even if there are materials appearing against the present petitioner but the same was completely without the knowledge of the present petitioner and she was working as an employee of the principal accused. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail. 2 There are complexities in the investigation involved. Some money has reached the account of the present petitioner out of the total amount which has surfaced in course of the investigation. The case is presently based on documents. Further investigation is in process and progress. Even the first charge sheet which has been submitted before the jurisdictional Court refers to 20 witnesses. Having considered the overall circumstances of the case, I am of the opinion that it may not be possible for the prosecution to take the case to its logical conclusion within a reasonable period of time. Having considered the same and without further going into the merits of the case the petitioner be released on bail. Accordingly, Petitioner, namely, Tista Sen @ Muniya shall furnish 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 Learned ACJM, Basirhat. If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date fixed before the learned Trial Court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of District of 24 Parganas North without the prior permission of the learned Trial Court. Accordingly, CRM (M) 1649 of 2026 is allowed. Copy of the evidence submitted by the learned advocate for the petitioner be kept with the record. 3 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.)
