16.04.2026 Serial no. 51 [G.S.D] CRM (M) 600 of 2026 In re : An Application for Bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/under Section 483 of the BNSS, 2023 in connection with Muchipara PS Case No. 79 of 2024 dated 28.06.2024 u/s 120B/365/302 of the IPC. -And- In the matter of : Indrajit Hansda @ Indrajit Hasda @ Indrajit Handa … Petitioner(s) Mr. Masum Ali Sardar Ms. Naghma Tabassum … for the Petitioner(s) Mr. Ranadeb Sengupta Ms. Sana Naaz … for the State-respondent(s) Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for one year seven months and is similarly placed as other accused persons who have been granted bail. Learned advocate for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for bail and submits that 14 witnesses out of the 34 witnesses cited in the charge-sheet have already been examined. According to the statement under Section 164 of the Cr.P.C. of one of the witnesses, the petitioner is similarly situated, while in respect of another witness, the petitioner is solely responsible. 2 Having considered the period of detention of the present petitioner and the tender age which weighed with the court while granting bail to the other accused persons, without entering into the merits of the case, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is Allowed. Accordingly, the petitioner viz, Indrajit Hansda @ Indrajit Hasda @ Indrajit Handa shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/-(Rupees Twenty Thousand only), with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned ACJM-II, Kolkata. If on bail, the petitioner shall also make himself physically available on each and every date so fixed by the learned trial court and shall not leave the district of Kolkata without prior intimation to the learned trial court. Accordingly, CRM (M) 600 of 2026 is allowed. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon’ble High Court, Calcutta. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties subject to compliance with all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.) 3
