And
In Re: Sk. Kiyam
… … Petitioner.
Mr. Sanjib Mitra
Mr. Suryasarathi Basu
… for the petitioner.
Mr. Gautam Banerjee
… … for the State.
It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that co-accused husband has
been granted pre-arrest bail.
Learned lawyer for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and
submits that petitioner i.e. brother-in-law of the victim had forcibly ravished her.
Having considered the materials in the case diary disclosing prima facie
involvement of the petitioner in subjecting the victim housewife to physical
assault and rape and as the petitioner does not stand on the same footing with
the co-accused person who has been granted anticipatory bail, we are not
inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.
The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, rejected.
