01.10.2026 Court No.35. D/L. 18. Kausik (Allowed) CRM (A) 3115 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Anticipatory Bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/Under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Saltora Police Station Case No. 100 of 2026 dated 25.06.2026 under Sections 103/61(2)/3(5) of the BNS, 2023. And In the matter of : Sucharit Barat @ Ribhu Barat ……Petitioner. Mr. Ranajoy Chatterjee Ms. Riya Mahanta ……for the Petitioner. Mr. Pradip Kumar Banerjee, Ld. APP Mr. Aniruddha Bhattacharyya Ms. Nabanita Chatterjee ….for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner, victim and others had been to an outing where the victim fell in the water and got drowned. State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and produces the case diary. I have taken into account the materials appearing in the case diary including the fact that the petitioner is aged about 17 years. Having regard to the same, I am inclined to allow the prayer for anticipatory bail. 2 Petitioner is directed to appear before the Juvenile Justice Board within a period of 4 weeks from date. The Juvenile Justice Board will impose such terms and conditions as it deems fit and proper. With the aforesaid observations CRM (A) 3115 of 2026 is allowed. Memo of Evidence submitted be kept with the record. All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order 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.)
