….petitioners.

Mr. Siddhartha Sarkar
Mr. Hirak Roy
…for the petitioners.

Ms. Sreeparna Das
…for the State.

The petitioners seek anticipatory bail in connection

with Kotulpur P.S. Case No. 32 of 2018 dated 28/03/2018

under Sections 498A/304B/302/34 of the Indian Penal Code.

The petitioners claim that though the case was filed,

inter alia, under Section 302 of the Penal Code, the charge-

sheet that has now been filed refers to Section 306 of the Code.

The petitioners claim that the husband and father-in-law of the

victim have been enlarged on bail.

The State produces the case diary.

The petitioners are the husband’s brother and

husband’s mother, respectively, of the victim.

Considering the allegations against the petitioners and

the fact that the husband has also been enlarged on bail, the

petitioners are entitled to obtain anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, in the event of arrest, the petitioners are

directed to be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of

Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) each, with two

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

of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting
