In Re : An application for bail under Section 439 of the
Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with
Gopalnagar Police Station Case No.652 of 2018 dated
20.11.2018 under Sections 498A/304B IPC.
And
In the matter of : Sabita Kundu
…. Petitioner
Mr. Soumyajit Das Mahapatra, Adv.
Mr. Surajit Basu, Adv.
Mr. Abdur Rakib, Adv.
….. For the Petitioner
Mr. S.G. Mukherjee, Ld. P.P.
Ms. Amita Gaur, Adv.
….. For the State
This is an application for bail under Section
498A/304B IPC.
The Learned Advocate for the petitioners submits that
the petitioner is the mother-in-law of the victim and she is in
custody for 99 days and charge sheet has already been
submitted.
The learned lawyer for the State opposes the prayer for
bail and submits that marriage of the petitioner with the
victim was solemnized three years before, within which the
2
fateful incident took place and there is consistent allegation
of demand of dowry.
We have perused the case diary and the materials on
record including the case diary. Considering the fact that
charge sheet has already been submitted in connection with
the instant case and the period of detention of the petitioner,
we are inclined to grant bail to her.
Accordingly, we direct that the petitioner shall be
released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.10,000/-(
Rupees Ten Thousand only) with two sureties of like amount
each, one of whom shall be local, to the satisfaction of the
learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bongaon on
condition that she shall not intimidate the witnesses and/or
tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever and she
shall appear before the trial Court on every date of hearing.
In the event of violation of any of the above conditions,
the learned Court below shall be at liberty to cancel the bail
of the petitioner without further reference to this Court.
3
The prayer for bail of the petitioners is allowed and
CRM 2199 of 2019 is thus disposed of.
Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied
for, be delivered to the learned Advocates for the parties,
upon compliance of all formalities.
