08.09.2026 IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA Item No.486 CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION Ct.No.35 dc. Rejected C.R.M. (A) 2924 of 2026 In Re : An Application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Lalgarh Police Station Case No. 80 of 2026 dated 11.06.2026 under Sections 316(5)/318(3) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. And In Re : Snehasis Das ... Petitioner. Mr. Suddhadev Adak, Ms. Richa Pramanik, Mr. Samrat Hoque ... For the Petitioner. Mr. Pinaki Bhattacharyya, Mr. Amartya Mohan Bhattacharyya ... For the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner is innocent and has been falsely implicated in connection with the instant case. Learned advocate appearing for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and submits that petitioner was Branch Manager of a sub-Post Office. There are specific accusations relating to misappropriation and petitioner is a public servant. Having considered the materials appearing in the present case, I am of the opinion that because of criminal misconduct this is not a fit case for granting anticipatory bail to the present petitioner. As such, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is rejected. The application for anticipatory bail, being CRM (A) 2924 of 2026, is, thus, dismissed. 2 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.)
