14.08.2026 Serial no. 46 Court no.551 (MKP) CRM (A) 2409 of 2026 In re : An Application under Section 482 of the BNSS, 2023/under Section 438 of the Cr.P.C. in connection with Karandighi PS Case No. 279 of 2026 dated 05.06.2026 u/s 126(2)/115(2)/117(2)/109(1)/351(2) of the BNSS 2023. -And- In the matter of : Niraj Kumar Mahata@Dhiraj Kumar Mahata … Petitioner Mr. Arghya Mallick Mr. Md. Hibibur Rahman … for the petitioner Mr. Ranojoy Chatterjee Mr. Somnath Bera … for the State-respondent(s) 1. On the prayer of the learned advocate for the petitioner, anticipatory bail application is taken up for consideration. 2. Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the instant case. It is also submitted that there are long pending property disputes between the parties, which has given rise to the instant case. 3. The learned advocate for the petitioner also submits that father of the petitioner was also implicated in 2 another case previously, filed at the behest of the de- facto complainant. 4. Learned advocate appearing on behalf of the State relies upon the injury report as contained in the case diary. He further submits that the investigation of the case is yet to conclude. Petitioner is very much required for the purpose of investigation. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for the anticipatory bail. 5. Having considered the materials, available in the case diary, although, there are some other allegations made against the petitioner by the defacto complainant and other persons, however, having gone through the injury report it transpires that the injured/de facto complainant was allegedly assaulted with fists. The injury report states that injuries were not classified as grievous. 6. Considering the aforesaid materials, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 7. Hence, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is Allowed. 8. Accordingly, I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only), to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and also be 3 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 BNSS and on further condition that petitioner shall meet the Investigating Officer once in a fortnight till the conclusion of investigation and on condition that the petitioner shall appear on every date before the jurisdictional Court on and from the date fixed for appearance of the accused and in default the jurisdictional Court will pass appropriate order to secure the presence of the petitioner in Court including cancelling the anticipatory bail granted without further reference to this Court. 9. CRM (A) 2409 of 2026 is disposed of. 10. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon’ble High Court, Calcutta. (Md.Shabbar Rashidi. J)
