...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Sudip Ghosh, Mr. Apurba Kr. Datta.

...for the State.

Heard the learned Advocates for the parties.

We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses and contemporaneous document i.e. seizure memorandum show recovery of narcotic substance i.e. 21 kgs. of ganja from the petitioner.

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 petitioner.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected.
