                                     O R D E R


            After hearing learned counsel for the parties,  we  are  of  the
considered opinion that paragraph 19 of the order passed by  this  Court  on
6th February, 2017 be read as under:
      “19. In the above view of the matter, the appeal is  allowed  and  the
appellant is ordered to  be  released  on  bail  in  FIR  RC-04/S/2014-(SIT)
Kolkata on furnishing bond of  Rs.1  (One)  crore  and  on  furnishing   two
sureties each of the like amount  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  Additional
Chief Judicial Magistrate Alipore,  Kolkata, West Bengal  and  also  subject
to the following  conditions.....”
             We also make it clear that the appellant  is  not  required  to
make a cash deposit of the aforesaid amount and execution of  bond  therefor
would suffice. The requirement of local sureties is hereby relaxed as  well.

            Rest of the order remains intact.
            Criminal Misc. Petition  for  modification  stands  disposed  of
accordingly.
