JUSTICE RONGON MUKHOPADHYAY --------- For the Petitioner : Md. Zaid Ahmed, Advocate For the State : A.P.P. --------- 02/17.03.2026 Heard Md.

It has been alleged that the husband of the informant was shot dead by some unknown miscreants and his bag containing cash was looted. Submission has been advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner seems to have been implicated on the confession of Sunil Mehta recorded in Ichak P.S. Case No. 78 of 2025. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that save and except the confession of Sunil Mehta there is no other material to connect the petitioner with the commission of murder of the husband of the informant. Learned A.P.P. has opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioner.
