It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he is in custody for about 143 days. It is further submitted that the dispute arose as the petitioner had objected to the immoral relationship between the deceased and a married man.

¶12

Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer

for bail.

¶14

We have considered the materials on record. We are conscious that evidence with regard to physical assault on the petitioner has been collected. Whether such conduct of the petitioner in the backdrop of the aforesaid facts would amount to abetment to suicide needs to be assessed during trial.

¶15

Under such circumstances and period of detention suffered by the petitioner, we are of the opinion further detention of the accused/petitioner is not necessary.

¶16

Therefore, the accused/petitioner, namely Debasish Dey , be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten thousand only), with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom

must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Additional District & Sessions Judge, 2^nd Fast Track Court, Raiganj, Uttar Dinajpur subject to condition that the said petitioner shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

¶19

In the event he fails to appear before the trial court without justifiable cause, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail automatically without reference to this court.

¶20

The application for bail, thus, stands allowed .
