AD 37 January 13, 2026 Ct. 28 SG CRM(A) 4185 of 2025 Reject An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Chakdah P.S. Case No.1171 of 2024 dated 18.10.2024 under Sections 137(2)/140(3) of the BNS, 2023 with added Sections 8/12 of the POCSO Act, 2012. And In the matter of: Antar Das … petitioner Mr. Shibaji Kumar Das Ms. Maitrayee Das … for the petitioner Mr. Bidyut Kumar Roy Ms. Baishakhi Chatterjee ... for the State Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there was a romantic relationship between the 25 years old petitioner and the 15 years old victim girl. The relationship turned sour and the FIR was registered. Learned counsel for the State strongly opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and relies on the statement of the minor victim made before the learned Magistrate. He submits that the victim was forcibly kidnapped and kept confined in a room. Considering the above and the other incriminating materials available in the case diary including the statements of local witnesses, I do not consider this to be a fit case for granting bail. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, rejected. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of requisite formalities.
