21.04.2026 Court No.35.

D/L.51.

Rakib (Rejected) CRM (NDPS) 720 of 2026 In Re: An Application for Bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/Under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Bhimpur Police Station case no. 190 of 2024 dated 14.07.2024 under Sections 21(c)/29 of the NDPS Act.

And In the matter of : Bapan Haldar.

......Petitioner.

Mr. Sumanta Das .....for the Petitioner.

Mrs. Ritupurna De Ghose Ms. Kanchan Roy ......for the State.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for more than one year nine months and only one witness out of the 39 witnesses which have been cited in the charge-sheet till date has been examined. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that 20000 bottles of phensedyl were recovered. Having considered the consequence, if the case is proved and the seizure till date has been unchallenged, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail.

As such, the prayer for bail of the petitioner in CRM (NDPS) 720 of 2026 is dismissed.

All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court.

Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
