as (Allowed) C.R.M. (NDPS) 601 of 2022 In Re:- An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with NDPS Case No.115 of 2022 arising out of Sagarpara P. S. Case No.92 of 2022 dated 07.05.2022 under Sections 21(c)/29 of the N.D.P.S. Act.

In the matter of : Soriful Sk. @ Sariful Sk.

.... Petitioner.

Mr. Tapodip Gupta.

...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Ranadeb Sengupta.

...for the State.

Heard the learned Counsels appearing on behalf of the parties.

Petitioner is in custody for about 32 days. No narcotic substance was recovered from his possession.

Learned Advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

We have considered the materials on record. No narcotic substance was recovered from the possession of the petitioner. His complicity has transpired from the statement of co-accused before a police officer which is inadmissible in evidence. Keeping in mind the aforesaid facts, we are of the opinion that the petitioner has been able to rebut the statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the N. D. P. S. Act and he may be granted bail.

Accordingly, 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 learned Judge, Special Court under N.D.P.S. Act, Murshidabad at Berhampore subject to condition that the petitioner shall appear before the trial court on every date of hearing until further orders and shall not intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence in any manner whatsoever. In the event the petitioner fails to appear before the Trial Court without any justifiable cause, the trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel his bail in accordance with law without further reference to this Court.

This application for bail is, thus, disposed of. (Ananya Bandyopadhyay,J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
