And In Re: Arabul Mondal ... ... Petitioner Mr. Shashanka Shekhar Saha ... ... for the petitioner Mrs. Sonali Das ... ... for the State

1. Chemical examiner's report shows presence of codeine phosphate in the sample.

2. Materials on record prima facie establish recovery of narcotics i.e. 7.6 kgs. of codeine phosphate, which is above commercial quantity 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.

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