17.05.2023 Sl. No.9 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. (NDPS) 998 of 2023 In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 11.05.2023 in connection with Liluah Police Station Case No.175 of 2020 dated 27.06.2020 under Section 21(c) of the NDPS Act.

And In Re: Sentu @ Santu Sardar ... ... Petitioner Mr. Pawan Kumar Gupta Ms. Sofia Nesar Mr. Sharabindu Patra Ms. Santasree Seth ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Saryati Datta ... ... for the State Heard the learned Advocates appearing for both the parties. We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses including contemporaneous document i.e. seizure memo disclose recovery of narcotic substance i.e. 4.8 ltrs. of codeine mixture, which is above commercial quantity from the petitioner. Under such circumstances and in view of the statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. The application for bail is thus rejected.
