In Re: An Application for Bail under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023/ Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 in connection with Kalna Police Station Case No. 459 of 2023 dated 20.04.2023 under Section 326A of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.
And In the matter of : Budni Tudu @ Budin Tudu @ Vutni Tudu
……Petitioner.
Mr. Dhananjay Banerjee
Mr. A. Dutta
Mr. Mohiul Islam
……for the Petitioner.
Mr. Amal Kumar Datta
Mr. Karan Dudhwewala
……for the State.
Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that although the accusations against the present petitioner is throwing acid but the petitioner is in custody since 22.04.2023 (3 years and 4 months) and only 4 witnesses out of 20 witnesses till date has been examined.
Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the victims are yet to be examined and the 4 witnesses who have been examined are independent eye witnesses but they are not victim to the incident.
I have considered the agony of the learned advocate appearing for the State. At the same time, I am of the opinion since the petitioner is a lady and she is in custody for 3 years 4 months and there are no antecedents of the present petitioner as such on stringent conditions, I am inclined to release the petitioner on bail.
Accordingly, prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed.
As such, petitioner, namely Budni Tudu @ Budin Tudu @ Vutni Tudu be enlarged on bail subject to furnishing bond of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand Only) with two sureties of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of Learned ACJM, Kalna.
If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date fixed before the learned Trial Court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of District of Purba Bardhaman without the prior permission of the learned Trial Court.
Additionally, petitioner shall stay outside the jurisdiction of Kalna Police Station till the evidence of the vulnerable witnesses including the victim are over.
Accordingly, CRM (M) 1857 of 2026 is allowed.
Memo of Evidence submitted be kept with the record.
All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court.
Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
