01.09.2026 IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA Item No.847 CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION Ct.No.35 dc. Allowed C.R.M. (A) 2862 of 2026 In Re : An Application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Bauria Police Station Case No. 111 of 2026 dated 12.06.2026 under Sections 126(2)/308(2)/324(4)/ 303(2)/351(2)/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (G.R. Case No. 1767/2026). And In Re : Kaji Atibar Rahaman ... Petitioner. Mr. Soumya Basu Roy Chowdhuri, Mr. Abir Dalui ... For the Petitioner. Ms. Arushi Rathore, Mr. Saswata Chatterjee ... For the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner is innocent and there are case and counter- case inter se the parties. Learned advocate appearing for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. I have taken into account the accusations and primarily, I find that incident complained of is of the year 2025 and information has been furnished on 12.06.2026. Having considered the period of time which has passed in the meantime, I am of the opinion that 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., Kaji Atibar Rahaman shall be released on bail to the 2 satisfaction of the 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 is submitted before the jurisdictional court. The application for anticipatory bail, being CRM (A) 2862 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.)
