... Petitioner.

Mr. Mohinoor Rhaman, Ms. Maria Rahaman, Ms. Iqra Rahaman.

...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Ranabir Roy Chowdhury, Mr. Mainak Gupta.

...for the State.

Heard the learned Counsels appearing on behalf of the parties.

Petitioner is in custody for seven months. He submits he has been falsely implicated in the instant case. Learned Advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses and seizure memorandum show recovery of 2.5 kgs. of codeine mixture from the possession of the petitioner. Co-accused fled away from the spot and has absconded. In view of the aforesaid materials on record disclosing prima facie involvement of the petitioner in the crime 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.
