22.06.2026 Court No.28 Item No.38 ssi CRM (A) 1402 of 2026 In Re: - An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita in connection with Lalgola Police Station Case No. 930 of 2025 dated 29.10.2025 under Sections 21 ( c)/29 of the NDPS Act.

And In the matter of: Obaidur @ Abaidul Sk.

.... Petitioner Mr. Sandipan Ganguly, Sr. Adv.

Mr. Satadru Lahiri Mr. Benajir Hasna Mr. Aliul Islam Mr. Sadid Haider ...for the petitioner Mr. Krishnendu Bhattacharya Ms. Rima Banerjee ..for the State Report filed on behalf of the State is taken on record. Learned senior counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that other than the statement of a co-accused which is not admissible in evidence, there is no incriminating material available against the present petitioner. Charge sheet has been submitted. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor relies on the case diary and opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He submits that other than the statement of a co-accused, there is hardly any other incriminating material available against the petitioner in the case diary. As per the report, there is no criminal antecedent or money trail or phone call conversation to implicate the petitioner.

In view of the above, the petitioner has been able to rebut the restriction contained in Section 37 of the NDPS Act and considering

the other materials available in the case diary, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

In the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the Arresting Officer and also be subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 438(2) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 482(2) of the BNSS, 2023 and on further conditions that the petitioner shall surrender before the learned jurisdictional Court and pray for bail within four weeks from this date and shall attend the jurisdictional Court regularly. The petitioner shall not threaten or intimidate the witnesses.

The application for anticipatory bail is, thus, disposed of. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order be supplied to the parties, if applied for, as early as possible. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
