22.06.2026 Sl. No.70 Ct. 28 NB C.R.M (A) 1676 of 2026 In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with English Bazar PS Case No.937/2026 dated 01.06.2026 under Sections126(2)/115(2)/109/351(2)/3(5) of the BNS, 2023. And In the matter of: Sandip Kundu @ Rana & Ors. … petitioners Mr. Santanu Talukdar, Mr. Priyankar Ganguly, Mr. Amaan Deep Gupta, m.s Pipasa Chakraborty. …for the petitioners. Mr. Brojesh Jha, Mr. Mukesh Gupta. …for the State. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. The petitioners have been falsely implicated in this case. Although there is an allegation of attempt to murder imputed in the formal part of the FIR, the body does not contain any such allegation. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State relies on the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He refers to the statements of witnesses. However, he submits that there is no injury report present in the case diary. Considering the above and the other materials available in the case diary, I do not think that custodial interrogation of the petitioners is required in this case and I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. 2

Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must 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 the petitioners shall cooperate with the investigation and shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever and the petitioner nos.1 and 2 shall meet the Investigating Officer once a fortnight till submission of report in final form. The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. 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.)
