D/L452 20.07.2026 Bpg. C.R.M. (M) 1278 of 2026 In Re: An application for bail under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Panskura Police Station Case No.715 of 2024 dated 09.09.2024 under Sections 124/126(2)/75(1)(i)/3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita read with Section 8 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act; Sk. Nazrul Islam @ Sk. Najrul Islam Versus The State of West Bengal & Anr. Mr. Suman De. …for the petitioner. Mr. L. Vishal Kumar Mr. Sanjib Das. …for the State. Mr. Imran Ali Mr. Saikat Debnath. …for the de facto complainant. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for 170 days. Charge-sheet has already been submitted and there has been no progress in the present case, as such, the petitioner may be released on bail. Petitioner submits that a case was registered at the behest of the present petitioner and as a counterblast the present case has been instituted. Learned advocate for the de facto complainant is present and opposes the prayer for bail. Learned advocate for the State has produced the case 2 diary. I have taken into account the statement of the victim under Section 183 of the BNSS. Materials suggest regarding the conduct and character of the accused persons. At this stage, without the evidence of the victim girl being complete, it would not be fit and proper to release the petitioner on bail.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner in CRM(M)1278 of 2026 is dismissed. Memo of Evidence submitted by the State be kept with the record. All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
