-AndIn the matter of : Durul Islam & Anr.

... ... Petitioner(s) Mr. Arnab Chatterjee Mr. Avik Ghosh Ms. Ankusha Ghosh ... for the Petitioner(s) Mr. Iqbal Kabir Mr. Subhasish Datta ... for the State-respondent(s) Learned advocate for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are in custody for about six months, charges have been framed and the prosecution intends to rely upon 11 witnesses in order to prove its case.

It has also been contended that the petitioners have been detained for alleged recovery of 495 bottles of phensedyl from the joint possession of the petitioners and another.

Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

Having considered the quantum recovered and the fact that witness action is yet to commence, I am of the

view that further detention of the present petitioners is unwarranted.

Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioners is Allowed.

Accordingly, the petitioners viz, Durul Islam and Alamin Mia shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/-(Rupees Twenty Thousand only) each, with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Judge, Special Court under NDPS Act-cum- learned Additional Sessions Judge, 5th Court at Berhampore, Murshidabad.

If on bail, the petitioners shall be physically present on each and every date of the trial so fixed by the learned trial court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of the district of Murshidabad without prior intimation to the learned Special Court.

Accordingly, CRM(NDPS) 300 of 2026 is allowed. Pending application(s), if any, is also disposed of. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon'ble High Court, Calcutta.
