Learned advocate for the petitioners at the inception submits that the petitioner no.1 has been arrested, as such, his prayer for anticipatory bail be not pressed.

¶11

In view of the submissions advanced, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner no.1 [Md. Jalil Mondal @ Jalil Mondal] is dismissed as not pressed.

Learned advocate for the State produces the case diary along with list of criminal antecedents and the Memo of Evidence.

¶13

¶14

I have taken into account the nature of the accusations which are appearing against both the petitioners.

¶15

However, having considered the fact that the criminal antecedents were specifically against the petitioner no.1 as has been submitted in the report and the petitioner no.2 happens to be a lady, I am of the opinion that the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner no.2 be allowed.

¶16

Hence, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner no.2 is Allowed.

¶17

Accordingly, I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner no.2 [Baby Mondal @ Bebi Mondal] be released on anticipatory bail subject to the satisfaction of the arresting officer of the case and also subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. and/or under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.

¶18

As the investigation of the case is still in progress, the petitioner no.2 shall make herself available as and when she would be required by the I.O. of the case for the sake of investigation. Additionally, the I.O. of the case, if other conditions are required, will supply to the learned jurisdictional Magistrate for imposing the same.

¶19

Accordingly, CRM (A) 3015 of 2026 is Partly allowed .
