....petitioner Mr. Jisan Iqubal Hossain ...for the petitioner.

Mr. Saibal Bapuli Mr. Bibaswan Bhattacharya ...for the State.

Petitioner seeks bail.

Considering the fact that the police filed charge-sheet and considering the fact that no narcotic was recovered from the possession of the petitioner and considering the fact that police are yet to find any nexus between the petitioner and the co-accused apart from the statement of the co-accused implicating the petitioner made while in custody, we are of the view that the petitioner is able to overcome the restrictions under Section 37 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985. Accordingly, the petitioner be released on bail upon furnishing a Bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand Only) with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Learned Judge, Special Court under the NDPS Act, Berhampore, Murshidabad subject to the condition that during bail the petitioner shall appear before the learned trial court on the date fixed till disposal of the trial and the petitioner shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever.

In the event the petitioner fails to comply with the conditions

as enshrined hereinbefore, it is open to the trial court to cancel the bail without any further reference to this Court. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. CRM (NDPS) 283 of 2022 is, thus disposed of.
