Ms. Ankita Dey
… for the petitioners
Mr. Rudradipta Nandy
… for the State

Having considered the materials on record and bearing in

Allowed mind the nature of allegations and in view of the fact that the

principal accused, that is, husband of the victim-housewife is in

custody, we are of the opinion custodial interrogation of the

petitioners is not necessary for progress of investigation and they may

be granted anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, we direct that in the event of arrest, the

petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of

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

amount each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and also be

subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the

Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and they shall appear before the

court below and pray for regular bail within a fortnight from date.

The application for anticipatory bail is, accordingly, allowed.

Urgent Photostat Certified copy of this order, if applied for, be

supplied expeditiously after complying with all necessary legal

formalities.
