D/L 35 Ct.No.28 SKB (Rejected) C.R.M. (NDPS) 1212 of 2023 In Re:- An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with NDPS Case No.73 of 2022 arising out of Dalkhola P.S. Case No.304 of 2022 dated 19.10.2022 under Sections 22(C)/28/29 of the NDPS Act.

In the matter of : Jillar Mondal .... Petitioner Mr. Somnath Adhikary ... for the Petitioner Mr. Madhusudan Sur, APP, Mr. Manoranjan Mahata ... for the NCB Heard learned advocates for the parties.

We have considered the materials on record.

Statement of witnesses show that the petitioner absconded from the spot. He somehow escaped.

From the aforesaid materials it is evident that he alongwith others were involved in transporting narcotics. Under such circumstances and in view of statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the N. D. P. S. Act, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected.
