This judgment in the centre: on the left the decisions it cites, on the right the decisions citing it. Colour is the treatment; choose a decision to open it.
1. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have been foisted with the criminal case after change in administration.
2. Learned advocate appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail.
3. The information, as it reflects, was brought to the attention of the police station almost after three months of the incident. There are no medical reports. Accusations are oral.
4. Having considered the overall circumstances, I am of the opinion that the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners, namely, Sk. Surabuddin @ Dhalo and Sk. Sakir Alam @ Bittu is allowed.

5. As such, I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioners be released on bail by the Investigating Officer/Arresting Officer of the case on such terms and conditions as it deems fit and proper. This would be subject to the conditions under Section 438(2) of the Cr.P.C. and/or under Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
6. As investigation is in progress, the petitioners shall report to the Investigating Officer within a period of 10 days and on all subsequent dates as required by the Investigating Officer till the report in final form is submitted before the Jurisdictional Court.
7. With the aforesaid observation, C.R.M. (A) 3174 of 2026 is disposed of.
8. Memo of evidence submitted be kept with the record.
9. All parties shall act in terms of the server copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court.
10. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
