KOLKATA: The Calcutta High Court on Wednesday granted anticipatory bail to Bengali actor and BJP MLA Hiran Chatterjee in connection with bigamy case.

His first wife Anindita Chatterjee had filed a case against him at Anandpur police station.

After that, the BJP MLA had filed a plea for anticipatory bail at Calcutta High Court.

Hearing the case, Justice Jay Sengupta's bench granted him anticipatory bail. However, Hiran will have to appear before the investigating officer once every 15 days.

It is worth mentioning that the hearing date for Hiran's anticipatory bail case was fixed for February 4. But that date was postponed. In the meantime, Hiran had started campaigning for the BJP ahead of the Assembly polls in West Bengal.
