Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. I have into account the materials appearing in the case diary and, on an assessment of the same, I am of the opinion that custodial detention of the present petitioners is not warranted. 2 Hence, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is Allowed. Accordingly, I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioners [Rakibul Molla and Aslam Mistri @ Aslam Molla] be released on anticipatory bail subject to the satisfaction of the arresting officer of the case and also subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. and/or under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. As the investigation of the case is still in progress, the petitioners shall meet with the Investigating Officer of the case within a period of ten days from date and, thereafter, on all subsequent dates as would be fixed by the Investigating Officer of the case for the sake of investigation till the report in final form is submitted before the learned jurisdictional court. Accordingly, CRM (A) 3671 of 2026 is disposed of. Memo of evidence submitted be kept with the record. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon’ble High Court, Calcutta. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.) 3
