D/L254 25.08.2026 Bpg. C.R.M. (M) 1380 of 2026 In Re: An application for Bail under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Joynagar Police Station Case No.933 of 2025 dated 06.11.2025 under Section 103(1)/61(2)/238/3(5) of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita; Sudipta Naskar @ Chottu Versus The State of West Bengal Mr. Soumya Nag Mr. Rajdeep Sengupta. ...for the petitioner. Mr. Rajendra Banerjee Mr. Koel Mukherjee. …for the State. Mr. Arun Kumar Mohanty Ms. Kaberi Sengupta Mohanty Mr. R.R. Mohanty Ms. Dipanwita Ganguly Ms. Tithi Guchhait Ms. P. Bala. …for the de facto complainant. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for more than 9 months. Another accused person has been granted bail by this Hon’ble Court and the petitioner is better placed than the other accused who has been granted bail. As such, the petitioner be released on bail on any condition. Learned advocate for the de facto complainant opposes the prayer for bail and submits that charges have been framed and 2 witness action has commenced. State has produced the case diary and relied upon the statement of some of the witnesses who have allegedly seen the incident. Prima facie, I am of the view that the petitioner is not similarly situated as the other accused person, his complicity is completely different. As such, the prayer for bail of the petitioner at this stage in CRM(M)1380 of 2026 is rejected. All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly 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 of all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
