Mr. Sumanta Das.

...for the Petitioners.

Mr. T. D. Nandy, Mr. Antarikhya Basu.

...for the State.

Heard the learned Advocates for the parties.

We have considered the materials on record. Bail prayer of the petitioners was rejected earlier on merits. 50 kgs. of ganja was recovered from a vehicle. Petitioners were present in the vehicle. Thereafter, 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 petitioners.

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