Sr. Advocate Mr. Subhendu Bhattacharjee, Advocate Ms. Dipasree Chanda, Advocate Ms. Shreyeta Mitra, Advocate Ms. Sudipa Gupta, Advocate …for the petitioners Mr. Krishnendu Bhattacharya, Ld. APP Ms. Tanusree Kar, Advocate … for the State 1. Petitioners seek anticipatory bail. 2. Materials in the case diary suggest that the petitioners received money from a foreign organization in order to undertake some projects in India. 3. Materials in the case diary suggest that the money was misappropriated. 4. Enlarging any of the petitioners on anticipatory bail is likely to affect the quality of the investigations. 5. Huge quantity of money is involved. 6. The project which forms the subject matter of the police complaint involves the fate of the public in general 2 particularly the economically weaker section. They apparently were also left in the lurch. 7. In such conspectus, I am not minded to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. 8. Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is rejected. 9. C.R.M. (A) 3542 of 2026 is dismissed. (Debangsu Basak, J.)
