... Petitioners Mr. Tapodip Gupta ... for the petitioners Mr. Ranadeb Sengupta ... for the State Heard the learned Advocates appearing for both the parties. We have considered the materials on record. Quantity of narcotics recovered from the petitioners i.e. 40 gms. of Heroin is below commercial quantity. Under such circumstances, we are of the opinion further detention of the petitioners is not necessary. Therefore, the petitioners, namely (1) Md. Amir Khan, (2) Gobinda Kumar Rajak @ Gobind Kumar Rajak & (3) Abhishek Kumar Bharti @ Abhisek Kumar Bharti, be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.

10,000/- (Rupees Ten thousand only) each, with two sureties of like amount each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Judge, Special Court under the NDPS Actcum-Additional District Judge, 5th Court, Berhampore, Murshidabad subject to condition that the said petitioners 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 or commit similar offences in future.

In the event they fail to appear before the trial court without any justifiable cause, the trial court shall be at liberty to cancel their bail automatically without reference to this court. The application for bail, thus, stands allowed. (Ajay Kumar Gupta, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
