...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Ashok Das, Mr. Sandip Chakraborty.

...for the State.

Heard the learned Advocates for the parties.

We have considered the materials on record.

Statements of witnesses and contemporaneous document i.e. seizure memorandum show recovery of 271 grams of yaba tablets containing methamphetamine from the petitioner. Charge has been framed and date has been fixed for recording prosecution evidence.

Under such circumstances and in view of statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

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