28.01.2026 Court No.28 Item No. 13 tbsr Allowed CRM (A) 4322 of 2025 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Paikar P.S. Case No.659 of 2025 dated 10.12.2025 under Sections 69, 352 and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. And In the matter of: Md. Afjalur Rahaman @ Afjarul Rahaman & Anr. ….Petitioners. Mr. Rajendra Banerjee Mr. Souvik Ganguly ….for the petitioners Mr. Imran Ali Mr. Subham Bhakat ….for the State Mr. Aniruddha Bhattacharya ….for the de facto complainant Report filed on behalf of the State is taken on record. Heard the learned counsels for the parties. Perused the case diary including the statement of the victim, presently an adult, recorded before the learned Magistrate. It appears from the statement that there was some kind of a relationship between the two for about three years. The principal accused is not before this Court. The present petitioners are the parents of the principal accused. Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary and the alleged roles ascribed to the present petitioners, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. 2 In the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer 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 BNSS, 2023 and on further condition that the petitioners shall cooperate with investigation, shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses and the petitioner no. 1 shall meet the I.O. once a fortnight till submission of report in final form. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. Urgent photostat certified copies of this order may be delivered to the learned Advocates for the parties, if applied for, upon compliance of all formalities. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
