19.01.2024 Sl. No.10 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. (NDPS) 123 of 2024 In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 15.01.2024 in connection with Gangnapur Police Station Case No.69 of 2023 dated 06.03.2023 under Section 20(b)(ii)(c) of the NDPS Act. (NDPS Case No.18 of 2023) And In Re: Krishna Das & Anr.

... ... Petitioners Mrs. Karabi Roy ... ... for the petitioners Mr. Sujan Chatterjee ... ... for the State

1. Heard the learned Advocates appearing for both the parties.

2. We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses including contemporaneous document i.e. seizure memo disclose recovery of narcotic substance i.e. 94.33 kgs. of Ganja, which is above commercial quantity from two vehicles. Petitioners were present in the vehicles. Trial is in progress. Under such circumstances and in view of the statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners.

3. The application for bail is thus rejected. (Gaurang Kanth, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
