In the matter of: Bhabesh Roy & Ors. …Petitioners
Mr. A. K. Das …for the Petitioners
Mr. Indradip Das, PP Ms. Suparna Biswas (Majumdar) …for the State
1. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that conduct of the deceased was questionable, as such, there was resistance from the petitioners, consequent to which, the deceased committed suicide.
2. Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail
3. I have taken into account the post-mortem report as also the statement of one of the witnesses. There is some force in the
submissions insofar as the issue relating to extramarital affair is concerned.
4. Having considered the same, I am of the opinion that custodial detention of the present petitioners may not be warranted in the
facts of the case.

5. Accordingly, prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners, namely, Bhabesh Roy, Shatarupa @ Priyanka Roy and Kadam Roy is allowed.

As such, I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioners be released on bail by the Investigating Officer/Arresting Officer of the case on such terms and conditions as it deems fit and proper. This would be subject to the conditions under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. and/or under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
7. Petitioners shall make themselves available as and when called for by the Investigating Officer of the case.
