1. Heard the learned counsels for the parties.

2. In view of the fact that the only material available against the petitioner in the case diary is the statement of a coaccused and there are no CDR analysis report implicating the petitioner or even any criminal antecedent, the petitioner has been able to rebut the restriction contained in Section 37 of the NDPS Act and as such, I am inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

3. In the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/- each 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 further conditions that the petitioner shall not threaten or intimidate witnesses.

and shall surrender and pray for bail before the jurisdictional Court within five weeks from date.

4. Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail is allowed.
