IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA Item No.49
CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION Ct.No.35 dc. Allowed C.R.M. (A) 3151 of 2026
In Re : An Application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Arambagh Police Station Case No. 346 of 2026 dated 12.07.2026 under Sections 115(2)/117(2)/ 118(2)/126(2)/303(2)/351(3)/352/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (G.R. Case No. 1435/2026). And
In Re : Monoranjan Pandit @ Monohar Pandit and others ... Petitioners. Mr. Niladri Sekhar Ghosh, Ms. Labani Sikder, Mr. Souvik Dey, Mr. Debarshi Mukhopadhyay
... For the Petitioners. Dr. Pradip Banerjee, APP, Ms. Rajarshee Venkat Kundalia, Mr. Anurag Sardar
... For the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioners submits that there was previous grudge for which the petitioners have 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 produces the case diary. The three persons have been named by the injured. There are injuries which have been inflicted. I do not find that there are stitches which have been administered and so far as the injuries are concerned, one of the injuries is a shallow depth injury at the parietal area. In view of the facts of the case, I am of the opinion that custodial detention of
2 the present petitioners in connection with the instant case is unwarranted. As such, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is allowed on stringent condition. Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioners viz.,
1. Monoranjan Pandit @ Monohar Pandit, 2. Sabuj Pandit and
3. Bimal Malik shall be released on bail to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer on such terms and conditions as he deems fit and proper and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. The petitioners shall meet with the Investigating Officer of the case twice a week till the same is modified by the learned jurisdictional court. Memo of Evidence submitted by the learned advocate appearing for the State be kept with the record. The application for anticipatory bail, being CRM (A) 3151 of 2026, is, thus, disposed of.
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.)
