31.08.2026 IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA Item No.104 CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION Ct.No.35 dc. Allowed C.R.M. (A) 2858 of 2026 In Re : An Application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Tehatta Police Station Case No. 902 of 2025 dated 11.11.2025 under Sections 110/115(2)/118(2)/126(2)/ 3(5)/351(2)/74 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (G.R. Case No. 1260/2025). And In Re : Debjit Dutta ... Petitioner. Ms. Minoti Gomes ... For the Petitioner. Mr. Subrata Mukherjee, Mr. Saurendra Betal, Mr. Manoj Kumar Singh ... For the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that there was previous animosity for which the petitioner has been foisted with the present criminal case. Learned advocate appearing for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and draws the attention of the Court to the injury report. I have taken into account the injury report wherein the injured has stated of being assaulted. On an assessment of the injury report, I am of the opinion that although a case for investigation has been made out, but custodial detention of the present petitioner in connection with the instant case is unwarranted. As such, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is allowed. Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioner viz., Debjit Dutta shall be released on bail to the satisfaction of the 2 Arresting Officer on such terms and conditions as he deems fit and proper and also be 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 Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. As the investigation of the case is still in progress, the petitioner, within a period of ten days from date, shall make himself available before the Investigating Officer of the case and thereafter, the Investigating Officer of the case, if required, would fix subsequent dates for presence of the petitioner for the sake of investigation till the report in final form submitted before the jurisdictional court. Memo of Evidence submitted by the learned advocate appearing for the State be kept with the record. The application for anticipatory bail, being CRM (A) 2858 of 2026, is, thus, disposed of. All concerned 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 with all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
