AB (Rejected) Calcutta High Court In the Circuit Bench at Jalpaiguri CRM (A) 641 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Anticipatory Bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/Under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Kotwali Police Station Case No.199 of 2026 Dated 05.05.2026 under Sections 126(2)/115(2)/118(2)/109/324(4) of the B.N.S. 2023 read with Sections 25/27 of the Arms Act And In the matter of : Krishna Das ……Petitioner. Dr. Arjun Chowdhury, Mr. Bikash Singha, Mr. Aniruddha Tarafdar, Mr. Rakesh Das ……for the Petitioner. Mr. Jagriti Mishra, ld. AAAG, Mr. Avrojyoti Das, ld. APP, Ms. Panchali Deb Sikder (Nag) Mr. Janardan Periwal, Mr. Raj Kr. Mitra, Mr. Atul Dong ……for the State. 1. The petitioner prays for pre arrest bail. He says that the allegation under Section 307 IPC that has been made against him is completely false. The complaint originates out of political rivalry. He belongs to the previous dispensation. The present dispensation is trying to frame him. 2. The State strongly opposes the prayer. From the case diary, the State shows me the injury report and pictures of the victim. I also find the petitioner brandishing a sword. 2 3. Dr. Chowdhury, learned advocate, says that since he does not know whose photographs the State has shown me, he is disputing that the photograph is that of the petitioner. 4. I am not inclined to allow this application in view of the material that is there in the case diary. 5. CRM (A) 641 of 2026 stands dismissed. (Arijit Banerjee, J.)
