31.08.2026 Serial no. 260 [G.S.Das] Assistant Registrar (Court) CRM (M) 1587 of 2026 In re : An Application for Bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/under Section 483 of the BNSS, 2023 in connection with Karaya PS Case No. 16 of 2018 dated 09.01.2018 u/s 302 of the IPC read with section 25(1B)(a)/27 of the Arms Act. -And- In the matter of : Sk. Idres @ Bhola @ Lambu Bhola @ Sk. Idris … Petitioner(s) Mr. Ujjal Ray Mr. Ivan Roy Mr. D. Biswas … for the Petitioner(s) Mr. L. Vishal Kumar … for the State-respondent(s) The petitioner is in custody for eight years eight months and only 20 witnesses till date have been examined. The prosecution intends to examine 32 more witnesses. It has also been canvassed that the petitioner has never prayed for time and unnecessarily he is being detained in custody. Learned advocate emphasized that the health condition of the petitioner is deteriorating and is suffering from Septicemia being admitted in R.G.Kar Medical College & Hospital. State has submitted a report which reflects that there are 10 other cases pending against the present petitioner. The petitioner was convicted in one of the cases 2 relating to Kasba P.S. Case No. 391 of 2022. However, while on bail in the said case, allegedly the petitioner fired at the victim of the present case following which the trial in the present case is continuing. Having considered that series of cases are pending against the present petitioner and all the offences primarily are offences against the body of an individual, I am not inclined to invoke the provisions of Article 21 of the Constitution of India as he is a history-sheeter. Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is Rejected. Accordingly, CRM (M) 1587 of 2026 is dismissed. Pending application(s), if any, is also disposed of. State is directed to expedite the process of trial. The learned trial court would render all possible medical aid by directing the appropriate authorities in case any application is filed on behalf of the petitioner. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon’ble High Court, Calcutta. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties subject to compliance with all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.) 3
