Sanjib Bhattacharjee @ Santu v. State Of West Bengal

08.12.2021 Sl. No.99 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. 6395 of 2021 [via video conferencing] In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 15.09.2021 in connection with Balurghat Police Station Case No. 228 of 2019 dated 08.04.2019 under Sections 21(c)/22(c)/23(c)/27A/28/29 of the NDPS Act.

And In Re: Sanjib Bhattacharjee @ Santu ... ... Petitioner Ms. Busra Khatun ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Madhusudan Sur .. Ld. Addl. Public Prosecutor Mr. Dipankar Paramanick ... ... for the State 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 ltrs. of codeine mixture, which is above commercial quantity from the joint possession of the petitioner and other co-accused persons.

Under such circumstances and in view of the statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, we are not inclined in granting bail to the petitioner.

The application for bail is thus rejected.
