03.09.2026 Court No.35. D/L.274. Rakib (Allowed) CRM (M) 1768 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/Under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Karimpur Police Station case no. 57 of 2024 dated 24.03.2024 under Sections 341/323/326/307/34 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. And In the matter of : Rabin Pramanik ……Petitioner. Mr. Milon Mukherjee, Sr. Adv, Mr. Joydeep Biswas Mr. Amanul Islam Mr. Sourav Mukherjee Mr. Kaushik Ghosh .....for the Petitioner. Mr. Aditya Tiwari Ms. Namrata Chatterjee ……for the State. Learned senior advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner is in custody for two years six months, only four witnesses have been examined out of the 13 witnesses cited by the prosecution and the genesis of the dispute related to land. Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submitted that the offending weapon was recovered at the instance of the present petitioner. Petitioner has been named in the statement under Section 164 of the Cr.P.C. of the wife of the deceased. I have taken into account the overall materials appearing in the case. So far as the background of the case is concerned, the following materials are required for some consideration after the petitioner is in custody for two years six months. 2 (i) There was a civil dispute existing relating to land between the parties; (ii) Nature of the weapon which has been complained of is a bamboo stick; (iii)Petitioner is in custody for more than two years six months and (iv) Only 4 witnesses have been examined out of the 13 witnesses cited by the prosecution. Having regard to the fact that some more time will be required to take the trial to its logical conclusion and without entering into the merits of the case, I am of the opinion that petitioner be released on bail. As such, prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. Accordingly, the petitioner, namely, Rabin Pramanik shall be released on bail upon furnishing 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 the learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Tehatta, Nadia. If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date before the learned Trial Court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of district of Nadia without prior permission of the learned Trial Court. Additionally, petitioner for the time being shall stay outside the jurisdiction of Karimpur police station till the evidence of the wife of the deceased is over. 3 With the aforesaid observations, CRM (M) No. 1768 of 2026 is allowed. Memo of evidence submitted by the State be kept with the record. 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.)
