In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Rejinagar P.S. Case No.141/2025 dated 18.05.2025 under Sections 85/86/109 of the BNS and Sections ¾ of the Dowry Prohibition Act,
1961.
And
In the matter of: Imran Kabir @ Imran Sk. …. petitioner
Mr. Anit Dey, Mr. Romit Naskar. …for the petitioner.
Mr. Saibal Bapuli, Mr. Arani Bhattacharyya.
…for the State.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the petitioner is the brother in law of the alleged victim. On instruction, the petitioner further submits that the principal accused being the husband was arrested and was thereafter granted bail. He seeks parity in respect of two other co-accused being the mother in law and the sister in law who were granted anticipatory bail by a Coordinate Bench of this Court dated 08.08.2025 in CRM (A) 2741 of
2025.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. Charge sheet has already been submitted. Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary, the fact that substantially similarly circumstanced co-accused were granted anticipatory bail by a Coordinate Bench of this Court,
2 that the husband had been arrested and the fact that charge sheet has already been submitted, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of Arresting Officer and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita on further condition that the petitioner shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever and shall surrender before the learned jurisdictional Court and pray for bail within four weeks from this date. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. The presence of the Investigating Officer is noted and is dispensed with.
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.
