01.09.2026 Court No.35. D/L. 315. Kausik (Allowed) CRM (M) 1730 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Bail under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023/ Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 in connection with Murshidabad Police Station Case No. 130 of 2026 dated 25.02.2026 under Sections 103(1)/35 of the BNS, 2023. And In the matter of : Najila Bibi ……Petitioner. Mr. Ali Ahsan Alamgir Ms. Soma Mal Ms. Rabia Khatoon Ms. J. Modak Mr. Debarpan Bose ……for the Petitioner. Mr. Kallol Mondal, Ld. PP Mr. Ayan Basu Ms. Nabanita Chatterjee ….for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner is in custody for more than 6 months. Charge sheet has already been submitted and she is innocent of the charges. Further, she has not been named by all the witnesses. Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail, draws the attention of the Court to the statement of the different eye witnesses. Primarily, I do not find that there is any contradiction amongst the eye witnesses while narrating the incident. While 2 some of the eye witnesses have emphasized on the fact that the stab was inflicted by the husband of the present petitioner but it has not been apprised to their recording officer relating to the presence of the present petitioner. Taking overall materials, primarily some of the facts are transparent. (1) The lady was present at the spot, (2) Mental preparation by both the accused cannot be ruled out, it is the lady along with the husband who had taken out the sharp weapon after the same was inserted in the person of the deceased. However, an analysis of all the statements reflects that if there was any overt act on the part of the present petitioner, it was post-infliction or insertion of the sharp weapon and there was no overt act for inserting the sharp weapon. Having considered the fact that petitioner is a lady, the overt acts are lacking to the hilt, as such I am of the view petitioner may be released on bail. As such, prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. Accordingly, Petitioner, namely, Najila Bibi shall furnish bond of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand Only) with two sureties of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of Learned ACJM, Lalbagh, Murshidabad. 3 If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date fixed before the learned Trial Court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of District of Murshidabad without the prior permission of the learned Trial Court. Accordingly, CRM (M) 1730 of 2026 is allowed. All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order 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.)
