CRM (M) 1631 of 2026

In Re : An Application for bail under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Kaliachak Police Station Case No. 732 of 2024 dated 25/5/2024 under Sections 363/365/376D/376DA/376(3)/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 6 of Pocso Act.

And In Re : Mabud Sk ... Petitioner. Adv. Sanjoy Bardha, Adv. Musharraf Alam Sk, Adv. Sk. Sarfuraj Nawaj, ... for the petitioner. Adv. Md. Aslam Khan, …for the de facto complainant. Adv. L. Vishal Kumar, Adv. Sanjib Das, ... for the State.

Memo of evidence submitted by the State is take on record.

The petitioner is in custody for more than two years and prays for bail.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the victim girls have been examined. P.W. 2 who is one of the victim girls has turned hostile. The petitioner is innocent. His further detention is not required. He may be granted bail.

Learned counsel for the State produces the Case Diary and opposes the prayer for bail.

I have considered the material on record. The victim girls have been examined. P.W. 2 who is one of the victim girls has turned hostile. The medical documents of the victim girls do not corroborate the version of the prosecution. Vulnerable witnesses have been examined.
