D/L.63.

Rakib (Rejected) CRM (M) 159 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/Under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Andal GRPS Police Station case no. 11 of 2025 dated 21.08.2025 under Sections 25(1a)/25(1B)(a)/25(6)/25(8)/26 of the Arms Act. And In the matter of : Bablu Ansari.

......Petitioner.

Ms. Minati Gomes Mr. Md. Hafiz Ali Mr. Partha Sarathi Mishra ......for the Petitioner.

Mr. Joydeep Roy Ms. Madhumita Basak ......for the State.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner has been arrested on the basis of the statement of the coaccused and there has been no recovery from the possession of the present petitioner, although, the subject matter of the case relates to recovery of certain country made one shutter. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that there were two seizures in the present case. So far as the present petitioner is concerned five rounds of 8 mm ammunition were recovered pursuant to the petitioner being taken in custody in connection with the instant case. Petitioner has similar other cases wherein one shutter and ammunition were recovered. There are Call Data Records and money transactions in respect of the arms dealing.

Having considered the nature of the offences and the complicity of the present petitioner, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner in CRM (M) 159 of 2026 is dismissed.

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.
