...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Ranabir Roy Chowdhury, 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 prima facie disclose recovery of 3.3 kgs. codeine phosphate above commercial quantity from the petitioner. Date has been fixed for recording 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.
