Mr. Ranjan Saha …for the petitioner Mr. Wasim Ahmed Mr. Harun Al Rashid …for the State Mr. Samrat Choudhury Mr. Devranjan Das Mr. Partha Banerjee …for the private respondents 1. In terms of the order dated 19th March, 2026 a communication dated 8th April, 2026 of Officer- in-Charge, Uttar Kashipur Police Station, Bhangar Division is filed today and same is taken on record. Copy of the said communication dated 8th April, 2026 is made over to the learned advocate representing the petitioner and private respondents. 2.
