16.04.2026 Sl. No.37 Ct. 28 NB C.R.M (A) 1130 of 2026 In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Farakka PS Case No.357/2025 dated 13.09.2025 under Sections 126(2)/115(2)/117(2)/118(1)/109/3(5) of the BNS, 2023. And In the matter of: Bablu Sk @ Bablu Sekh & Ors. … petitioners Mr. Mrityunhoy Chatterjee, Ms. Suchismita Chakrabroty, Mr. Debarnab Adhikary. …for the petitioners. Mr. Imran Ali, Mr. Sachit Taludkar. …for the State. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. The petitioners have been falsely implicated in this case. All members of the family have been roped in as assailants. One of the principal accused was arrested and was thereafter granted bail. Charge sheet has been submitted. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State strongly opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He relies on the injury reports and submits that the injuries were caused by sabol and hansua. He also refers to the statements of witnesses and to a GD entry lodged from the victim’s side alleging threats. It appears from the injury report of the principal victim as contained at page 35 of the case diary, that the assault was done by the victim’s brother and nephew. Considering the above, the other materials available in the case diary, the alleged role ascribed to the present petitioners and 2 the fact that charge sheet has already been submitted although I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the present petitioners, the movement of the petitioner nos.1, 2 and 3 shall remain restricted for a limited period. Accordingly, 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 Arresting Officer and subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and on further condition that the petitioners shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever and shall surrender before the learned jurisdictional Court and pray for bail within four weeks from this date and shall regularly attend the jurisdictional Court and the petitioners nos.1, 2 and 3 shall stay outside the jurisdiction of Farakka Police Station except for attending the jurisdictional Court or meeting the Investigating Officer or casting their votes in the ensuing Assembly Elections. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. Urgent photostat certified copies of this order may be delivered to the learned Advocates for the parties, if applied for, upon compliance of all formalities. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
