We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses and contemporaneous document show recovery of 2.223 kgs. of codenine mixture which is above commercial quantity from the possession of the petitioner. In view of the aforesaid circumstances and the statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected.
