2026:THC:728 TRHC010009032026 HIGH COURT OF TRIPURA AGARTALA AB No.32 of 2026 Jamir Ali, S/o- Nidhan Mia, R/o- Vill-Baishgharia, P.O- Golabari, P.S- Teliamura, Khowai Tripura. ……Petitioner(s). V e r s u s The State of Tripura ……Respondent(s). For Petitioner (s) : Mr. Bhaskar Deb, Advocate. Mr. Ramij Ali, Advocate. For Respondent(s) : Mr. Raju Datta, PP. HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE S. DATTA PURKAYASTHA Order 03/06/2026 Heard learned counsel of both sides. The allegation in the FIR is that the accused, being a neighbour of the victim, used to visit her matrimonial home regularly, and taking secretly some nude photographs of the victim while she was changing her dress, started blackmailing her to have physical intercourse with him. This way, under pressure, he committed rape on her on 29.03.2026 and 02.04.2026. Due to such activities of the accused, as alleged, the victim even attempted to commit suicide also. The case has been registered as Teliamura P.S. Case No.20 of 2026 under Sections 64(1)/77 of BNS, 2023. According to the petitioner, he is a government employee working as a teacher under the Directorate of Education. Mr. Bhaskar Deb, learned counsel for the petitioner, submits that it was a case of consensual sex between both the parties and both are majors. Moreover, the petitioner being a government employee, there is less chance of his abscondence. Mr. Raju Datta, learned PP, however, opposes the prayer. Page 2 of 2 2026:THC:728 TRHC010009032026 On consultation of the case diary, it appears that the Investigating Officer has collected joint photographs of both the victim and the accused person, which gave an impression of the intimacy between them. Neighbouring peoples have also stated about the illicit relationship between both the victim and the present petitioner, and even one village meeting was also held in this regard and a resolution was also recorded which is collected by the Investigating Officer. Court has considered all these materials and prima facie, it appears to be fit case to grant bail. Considering all these aspects, the bail prayer is allowed. It is ordered that, in the event of arrest in connection with Teliamura P.S. Case No.20 of 2026, the petitioner, Jamir Ali, shall be released on bail on furnishing a bond of Rs.1,00,000/- with one surety of the like amount, on condition that whenever asked for, he will appear before the Investigating Officer to face interrogation. In addition thereto, he will record his attendance before the Investigating Officer once in a fortnight for next three months; and he will not try to influence or terrorise, directly or indirectly, any person acquainted with the facts of the case, so as to dissuade him or them from divulging the truth before the Investigating Officer or before the Court. He will also regularly attend the Court to face trial. Return the CD along with copy of this order. Interim order, if any, stands vacated.
