The prosecution’s case in brief is that on 23.04.2026, the informant, namely, Safiqul Islam, who has a Pharmacy at Basugaon, lodged an FIR alleging that on 15.05.2026, the accused-applicant called the informant to his house to discuss for treatment of a patient. When he reached the house of the accused-applicant at around 9.30 PM after closing the pharmacy, the accused-applicant showed him an unknown woman present at his house and told him that she required some treatment and thereafter, the accused-applicant left the room. After his leaving, some persons knocked on the door of the house and the woman who opened the door. On opening of the door, three persons entered the room and started threatening and beating the informant and forced him to sit with the woman and demanded money from him, telling him to confess his involvement in immoral activities with her. The three unknown persons claimed themselves to be NDFB members and threatened to kill him and his family. On the next date, the accused- applicant had to pay an amount of Rs. 2,30,000/- in cash to the accused person in presence of Amir Hussain Mondal. 4. The learned counsel appearing for the accused-applicant submits that the accused-applicant in the instant case is not named in the FIR as an accused. However, his name was mentioned as a person who was present while the alleged money was delivered to the accused-persons by the informant. He submits that since his name has been mentioned in the FIR though not as an accused, the police is searching for him and police has visited his residence several times. He submits that in view of the aforesaid, he has serious apprehension that he may be arrested in connection with the instant case and therefore, prays for pre-arrest bail. Page No.# 3/3 5.
