S.L. No.105 CRM 1196 of 2021 In re:- An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 in connection with Gangarampur Police Station Case No.291 of 2020 dated 22.08.2020 under Sections 21(c)/23(c)/27A/28/29 of the NDPS Act.

In re: Ranjit Singha .......Petitioner Ms. Jeenia Rudra, ......for the petitioner.

Mr. Sanjay Bardhan, Mr. Palash Ch. Majhi.

.......for the State.

Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was arrested on 24th August, 2020 and since then he is in custody. Additionally, learned advocate submits that on any condition the petitioner may be released on bail.

Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail as the phensedyl was recovered from the possession of the present petitioner, and submits as such the provision of Section 37 of the NDPS Act is attracted.

We have perused the materials on record and having regard to the fact that seizure of commercial

quantity was from the petitioner, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

The application being CRM 1196 of 2021 is, thus, rejected.
