In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita in connection with Dankuni Police Station Case No.180 dated 02.06.2025 under Sections 85/108 of the BNS 2023. And In the matter of: Sahina Khatun @ Saina Begum & others. …. Petitioners
Mr. Navanil De Ms. Monami Mukherjee
…for the petitioners
Mr. Soumik Ganguly Ms. Madhumita Basak
..for the State
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. The petitioner nos. 1 and 2 are the sisters-in-law and the petitioner nos. 3 and 4 are the brothers-in-law of the alleged victim. The incident took place within six months of marriage. The accused husband was arrested and thereafter granted bail. Charge sheet has been submitted.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. She relies on the post-mortem report and the statements of witnesses.
Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary, the fact that one of the principal accused being the husband was arrested and was thereafter grated bail and that a charge sheet has been submitted, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
2
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 attend the jurisdictional Court regularly. The petitioners shall not threaten or intimidate the witnesses.
The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of.
Urgent photostat certified copy of this order be supplied to the parties, if applied for, as early as possible.
