Judgment
Mr. Bidyut Kumar Ray, Mr. Ashoke Das. ...for the State. Mr. Sourav Mukherjee …for the de facto complainant. Heard the learned counsels for the parties. Perused the case diary. Considering the incriminating materials available in the case diary including the statement of the minor victim, I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail the petitioner no.1 (Mithun Mondal). Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioner no.1 (Mithun Mondal) is hereby rejected. However, considering the role ascribed to the petitioner no.2 (Milan Mondal), the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioner no.2 (Milan Mondal) is allowed. Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioner no.2 (Milan Mondal) shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must 2 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 he shall meet the Investigation Officer once a week till submission of report in final form and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses, whatsoever. The application for anticipatory bail being CRM (A) 2185 of 2025 is, thus, partly allowed. 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.)
