Heard the learned Advocates for the parties.

Chemical examiner's report is placed on record. Report shows presence of codeine phosphate in the sample.

In the light of the aforesaid materials on record showing recovery of 123 bottles of phensedyl syrup containing codeine phosphate above commercial quantity from the petitioners and in view of statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners.

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