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. The application for anticipatory bail is canvassed on the ground that the allegations of assault on the victim are primarily against the husband, who is in judicial custody. The applicants/petitioners are mother-in-law and father-in-law of the victim. The allegations against them in the complaint as well as the statement of the victim recorded under Section 164 of the Cr. P. C. are generic in nature and of torture by abusive language.
2. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is of the view that the applicants are entitled to anticipatory bail.
3. Accordingly, I direct that in the event of arrest the petitioners shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of the CJM, Jalpaiguri and subject to the conditions that they shall attend the I.O. continuously as and when summoned and shall not leave the jurisdiction of the Rajganj Police Station without
2 the prior leave of the I.O. The further condition is that the petitioners shall surrender the passport, if any and provide their present address to the concerned I.O.
4. The application for anticipatory bail, being CRM (A) 697 of 2026 is allowed and disposed of.
5. All parties shall act on the server copies of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court.
