Arjun Roy v. State Of West Bengal

31.03.2023 Sl. No.12 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. (NDPS) 607 of 2023 In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 23.03.2023 in connection with Kaliachak Police Station Case No.365 of 2022 dated 10.04.2022 under Sections 22(c)/27A/29 of the NDPS Act. (NDPS Case No.54 of 2022) And In Re: Arjun Roy ... ... Petitioner Mr. Kalidas Saha ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Ranadeb Sengupta ... ... for the State Petitioner renews his prayer for bail. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that he is in custody for about 305 days. Learned Advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail. We have considered the materials on record. Bail prayer of the petitioner was rejected earlier on merits. There is no change in circumstance since then. 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.

The application for bail is thus rejected.
