28.08.2026 SL No.29 Court No.446 S.Gayen IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION APPELLATE SIDE C.R.M.(A) 2275 of 2026 In Re: An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Kotwali Police Station Case No. 530 of 2026 dated 18.05.2026 under Sections 329(4)/117(2)/118(2)/109/351(2)/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. -And- In the matter of: Shyamal Das …Petitioner Mr. Sabir Ahmed Mr. Dhiman Banerjee Mr. Wuazi Ezaz Ahmed …for the Petitioner Mr. Anamika Banerjee Mr. Ayan Mitra …for the State 1. This instant application has been filed with a prayer for anticipatory bail. 2. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the instant case allegedly arose between two groups, who are family members. The dispute relating to a property led to the incident, and a civil suit is also pending before the competent court of law between the parties. He submits that there is a case and counter-case. He further submits that the privilege under Section 482 of the BNSS can be extended in favour of the petitioner. 3. Learned counsel for the State produces the case diary and the Memo of Evidence and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. The Memo of Evidence submitted by the State is taken on record. 4. Heard the learned counsel for the respective parties. Perused the case diary and other materials on record. 2 5. Admittedly, there is a case and counter-case and there is a long-standing civil dispute between the parties and considering the nature of injuries as reflected in the injury report, I am of the view that custodial interrogation of the present petitioner is not necessary. 6. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. 7. 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), with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer, and shall also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of the BNSS, and on the further condition that the petitioner shall meet the Investigating Officer once in a fortnight and shall not leave the jurisdiction of the concerned police station until submission of the charge-sheet. 8. Thus, the application for anticipatory bail being C.R.M. (A) 2275 of 2026 stands disposed of. (Partha Sarathi Chatterjee, J.)
