This petition under Section 482 BNSS is filed by the petitioner, Page No.# 2/3 namely, Md. Khairul Alom, apprehending arrest in connection with Laluk P.S. Case No. 23/2026 registered u/s 61(2) (A)/316(2)/318(2) of BNS, (corresponding to GR Case No. 89/2026). 3. The case arose out of a FIR dated 1/2/26 lodged by SI Simantha Pathak of Laluk PS. It is stated that reliable information was received about 2 persons carrying illegal fake gold in a Hyundai Creta vehicle and accordingly, the vehicle along with the 2 persons, namely Dil Aftanur Alam and Zeanur Rahman were arrested and seeing their suspicious behavior, a search was conducted which revealed 21 numbers of suspected fake gold weighing 35.962 kgs. It is also alleged that apart from trying to cheat innocent people, these recovery could also be indicative of a larger network operating. 4. Petitioner was granted interim bail on 19.03.2026 and pursuant to which he stated to have appeared before the IO for recording his statement. Learned counsel submits that the petitioner is cooperating with the investigation. 5. The case diary has been received. 6. Mr. Goswami, learned Additional Public Prosecutor opposing the bail submits that the investigation has not only found incriminating materials against the petitioner but the materials prima facie revealed that he is one of the main persons involved in the alleged offenses of making and cheating people with fake gold. It is also revealed by the investigation as submitted by the Prosecution that the seized vehicle belongs to the petitioner himself. Page No.# 3/3 7. The case diary has been accompanied by a written bail objection submitted by the IO objecting to grant of bail stating that the allegations indicate organized fraud involving counterfeit gold. 8. Seen the progress of investigation also perused the statement of the complainant who stated that the petitioner has been manufacturing these fake items in his own residence. 9. In view of these aforesaid materials and considering the fact that investigation is still in progress – I am of the considered view that it will not be prudent to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner at least at this stage. 10. In such view of the matter, the interim bail granted to him is hereby vacated and the bail petition stands rejected and disposed of. 11. Return back the case. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
