In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Suraksha Nagarik Sanhita in connection with Beldanga Police Station Case No.401 of 2025 dated 17.06.2025 under Sections 85/108/3 (5) of the BNS 2023 and Section 3/4 DP Act
1961.
And In the matter of: Anowar Sk & others. ….Applicants/Petitioners.
Mr. Arnab Chatterjee Mr. Anisur Rahaman
…for the petitioners Mr. P. K. Dutta, Ld. APP Mr. Karan Bapuli
..for the State
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. The application for anticipatory bail is not pressed, so far as the petitioner no.3/father in law is concerned. He has already been arrested. Although the FIR contained an allegation of murder, charge sheet was submitted with a charge of abetment of suicide. Incident took place seven years after the marriage between the couple. The principal accused being the husband was arrested and thereafter granted bail. The present petitioners are the brother in law and the mother in law. Immediately after the incident, the husband and the in- laws admitted the victim to the hospital.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He refers to the post mortem report which does not show any external injury, the statements of witnesses including those of neighbours.

Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary, the alleged roles ascribed to the present petitioners and the fact that the principal accused being the husband was arrested and thereafter granted bail, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is allowed.
In the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482(2) of the BNSS, 2023 and on further conditions that the petitioners shall surrender before the learned jurisdictional Court and pray for bail within four weeks from this date and shall not threaten or intimidate the witnesses.
The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of.
