…… for the petitioner
Mr. Swapan Banerjee
Ms. Sonali Das
…… for the State
Heard the learned advocates appearing for the petitioner
and the State.
Petitioner is in custody for 166 days and it is submitted
that there is no direct evidence connecting the petitioner with the
alleged crime.
Learned lawyer for the State opposes the prayer for bail.
Having considered the materials in the case diary and
bearing in mind the extent of complicity of the petitioner in the
alleged crime in the light of the submission that there is no
legally admissible evidence connecting the petitioner with the
alleged crime and in view of the period of detention suffered by
the petitioner and as investigation is complete, we are inclined to
grant bail to the petitioner.
Accordingly, the petitioner be released on bail upon
furnishing a bond of Rs. 10,000/- with two sureties of like
2
amount each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of the
learned ACJM, Alipurduar on condition that the petitioner shall
appear before the trial court on every date of hearing and shall
not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner
whatsoever.
In the event he fails to appear before the trial court without
justifiable cause, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel his
bail automatically without reference to this court.
The application being CRM 10068 of 2019 is disposed of.
