Learned State counsel raised an objection with regard to maintainability of this bail application on the ground that applicant was earlier arrested and thereafter produced before the Court of ACJM, Alipore (W.B). The Court at Alipore has released the applicant on interim bail with a direction to applicant to appear before the Court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Khairagarh on or before 15.06.2026 and to submit compliance report. It also appears that applicant failed to comply with the direction issue by ACJM, Alipore and this application is filed against issuance of arrest warrant. The applicant is having remedy to file appropriate application for cancellation of arrest warrant. 3. At this stage, learned counsel for applicant submits that in view of the objection raised by learned State counsel, he will file appropriate application seeking cancellation of arrest warrant. 4. In view of the above submission made by learned counsel for parties, this application for grant of anticipatory bail is disposed of with liberty to applicant to file appropriate application seeking cancellation of bail, before the concerned Court.
