10.12.2021 Sl. No.158 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. 8243 of 2021 [via video conferencing] In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 07.12.2021 in connection with Jalangi Police Station Case No. 150 of 2020 dated 10.04.2020 under Sections 21(c)/29 of the NDPS Act. (NDPS Case No.133 of 2020) And In Re: Sahan Reja ... ... Petitioner Mr. Tapodip Gupta ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Ranabir Roy Chowdhury Mr. Mainak Gupta ... ... 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. 85 bottles of phensedyl syrup containing codeine mixture, which is above commercial quantity from the possession of the petitioner.

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.
