27.01.2026 Court No.28 Item No.64 ssi CRM (A) 12 of 2026 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Suraksha Nagarik Sanhita in connection with Kolaghat Police Station Case No.266 of 2025 dated 14.06.2025 under Sections 126 (2)/115(2)/117(2)/74/351 (2)/3(5) of the BNS 2023 and adding Section 109 of BNS. And In the matter of: Archana Jana Ghara …. Petitioner. Mr. Amal Krishna Samanta …for the petitioner Mr. Arijit Ganguli Mr. Sujan Chatterjee ..for the State Heard the learned counsels for the parties. Perused the case diary. It appears that a 40 per cent disabled victim, was assaulted by some of the co-accused. The petitioner had also participated in the assault, especially on the mother of the victim. It appears that charge sheet has been submitted and the principal accused was arrested and thereafter granted bail. Considering the above, the alleged role ascribed to the present petitioner, the fact that the petitioner is a female member of the household and the fact that charge sheet has been submitted, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is allowed. In the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount 2 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 petitioner shall surrender before the learned jurisdictional Court and pray for bail within four weeks from this date and the petitioner shall attend the jurisdictional Court regularly. The petitioner shall not threaten or intimidate the witnesses. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
