14.08.2026 Sl. No.18 Ct. 446/tkm C. R. M. (A) 2144 of 2026 In Re: An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Suri Police Station Case No.225 of 2026 dated 01.05.2026 under Section 108 of BNS 2023 And In Re: Beauty Basak … … Petitioner Allowed Mr. S Das Mahapatra Mr. Kunal Ganguly … … for the petitioner Ms. Anushi Rathore Mr. Prabal Das … … for the State 1. The learned Advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the instant case following the death of the son of the de facto complainant. He further submits that the victim committed suicide and that, following the said incident, the present case was initiated on the basis of a complaint lodged by the victim’s father. It is submitted that, in the FIR, the petitioner, who was allegedly in a love relationship with the victim, has been accused of having abetted the commission of suicide. He submits that there is no material on record connecting the petitioner with the alleged offence. It is, therefore, contended that it would be unjust to subject the petitioner to custodial detention. He accordingly prays for grant of anticipatory bail. 2. Learned advocate for the State produces the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. 3. Heard the learned Advocates for the respective parties and perused the materials on record, including the post-mortem 2 report and the statements of witnesses recorded in the course of investigation. The post-mortem report suggests that a non- continuous ligature mark was found on the neck of the victim, which suggests that the victim committed suicide. Taking note of this fact and the other materials on record, I am of the view that custodial interrogation of the petitioner is not necessary and that the benefit under Section 482 of the BNSS can be extended in favour of the petitioner. 4. Accordingly, I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs. 10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the learned CJM Birbhum and also subject to the conditions as laid down under section 482(2) of BNSS 2023 and on further condition that the petitioner shall not leave the jurisdiction of the concerned PS without leave of the investigating officer. 5. The application being CRM (A) 2144 of 2026 is disposed of. (Partha Sarathi Chatterjee, J.)
