SHIBANI SAHA DEY @ SHIBANI SAHA PRITI KAR BAGCHI vs THE STATE OF WEST BENGAL AND ANR — CRR/1082/2026

Summary of CRR 1082/2026 The court set aside the Special Judge's January 5, 2026 order issuing warrants of proclamation and attachment against petitioner Shibani Saha Dey, holding that since the petitioner had complied with a notice under Section 35(3) BNSS 2023 and appeared before the investigating officer, there was no justification for marking her as absconding in the chargesheet or issuing an arrest warrant. The court further held that simultaneous proclamation and attachment orders could not be issued without satisfying statutory requirements under Section 85(1) BNSS 2023, and attachment should ordinarily follow completed proclamation procedures. The matter was remitted for fresh proceedings in accordance with law. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
