And In Re: Palash Chakraborty & Anr.

... ... Petitioners Mr. Bhaskar Hutait ... ... for the petitioners Mr. Ranabir Roy Chowdhury Mr. Mainak Gupta ... ... 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. 20.230 kgs. of Ganja containing codeine phosphate, which is above commercial quantity from the petitioners. 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 petitioners.

The application for bail is thus rejected.
