29.06.2026

IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA

Item No.219 CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION Ct.No.35 dc.

Allowed C.R.M. (NDPS) 1222 of 2026 In Re : An Application for bail under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, filed in connection with Baishnabnagar Police Station Case No. 1301 of 2025 dated 03.10.2025 under Sections 21(c)/27A/29 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985. And In Re :

Subham Kumar ... Petitioner.

Mr. Apan Saha, Mr. Musharraf Alam Sk Mr. Sk Sarfaraj Nawaj ... For the Petitioner.

Mr. Sandeep Prasad Shaw ... For the State.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is similarly situated as Rakib Sk who has been granted bail on 21.05.2026 in CRM(NDPS) 841 of 2026. Learned advocate appearing for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for bail.

I have taken into account the grounds on which Rakib Sk has been granted bail, which was on the basis of the decision of the of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Sentu Seikh Vs. State of West Bengal arising out of SLP (Crl.) No. 13987/2025. Having regard to the same, I am inclined to extend the same benefit to the present petitioner. As such, the present petitioner viz., Subham Kumar be released on bail by the learned Trial Court on the same terms and conditions as the other accused who has been granted bail in CRM (NDPS) 841 of 2026.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed.

Memo of Evidence submitted by the learned advocate appearing for the State be kept with the record. The application for bail, being CRM (NDPS) 1222 of 2026, is, thus, disposed of.

All concerned parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court.

Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
