Ct.No.28 as (Rejected) C.R.M. (NDPS) 940 of 2022 In Re:- An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with NDPS Case No.70 of 2021 arising out of Kaliachak P.S. Case No.846 of 2021 dated 14.08.2021 under Section 21(C)/29 of the NDPS Act. In the matter of : Nayan Mandal.

... Petitioner.

Mr. Ramdulal Manna, Ms. Manju Manna (Dey), Mr. Sayan Mukherjee.

...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Ranabir Roy Chowdhury, Mr. Sandip Chakraborty.

...for the State.

Liberty is given to the learned Advocate-on-record of the petitioner to correct the cause title of the petition. We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses and contemporaneous documents show recovery of narcotic substance above commercial quantity from the possession of the petitioner.

Under such circumstances and in view of the 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.
