State of West Bengal
Mr. Anindya Ghosh, Adv.
…for the petitioner.
Mr. Arijit Ganguly, Adv.
Ms. Debjani Sahu, Adv.
…for the State.

The petitioner seeks anticipatory bail in connection with Udaynarayanpur

Police Station Case No. 75 of 2018 dated 21.07.2018 under Sections

498A/326/307/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

The petitioner says that a minor tiff with the wife resulted in the wife

seeking to set herself on fire.

The state produces the case diary. The statement attributed to the victim

corroborates the stand taken by the petitioner.

In the circumstances, it does not appear necessary for the petitioner to be

taken into immediate custody.

Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioner is directed to be released

on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) with two

sureties of Rs.5,000/- (Rupees Five Thousand Only) each, one of whom must be

local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer, subject to the conditions laid down

under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. In addition, the

petitioner will also report to the Investigating Officer at such time and place as may

be specified by the concerned police officer.

The petition for anticipatory bail is allowed on the conditions indicated

above.

A certified copy of this order be immediately made available to the

petitioner, subject to compliance with all requisite formalities.
