(NDPS) 1156 of 2025 (ALLOWED) In Re:- An application for bail under section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with NDPS Case No. 3902 of 2025 arising out of F.No. S1 (VII) -179/2025 (AIU) dated August 01, 2025 under sections 20 (b)/23(a) read with section 8 of the NDPS Act, 1985 giving rise to NDPS Case No. 235 of 2025 (also written as N- 235/2025).
BD. In the matter of : Yashkumar Maheshbhai Ahir .... Petitioner. Mr.Navnil De Mr. Srinjan Ghosh ... for the petitioner. In spite of service of notice upon the Air Customs/Complainant, complainant is not represented. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that 3026 gms. of ganja was recovered from the possession of the present petitioner and petitioner is in custody for about 49 days and as such he may be released on bail on any terms and conditions. Having heard learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner it appears that the recovery in connection with the instant proceeding is much below the commercial quantity and for which rigour of section 37 does not attract in respect of the present petitioner and also considering the fact that the investigation in respect of the present petitioner must have advanced to a considerable extent while he was in custody for about 50 days his prayer for bail is allowed.
Accordingly, the petitioner namely, Yashkumar Maheshbhai Ahir, shall find bail of Rs. 20,000/- with two registered sureties of Rs. 10,000/- each, one of which must be local, subject to the satisfaction of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Barasat, North 24 Parganas, and also on condition that the petitioner shall not leave the geographical limit of District- North 24 Parganas, without the leave of the trial court, and shall report to the Inspector-in-charge/Officer-in-Charge, Barasat Police Station, District- North 24 Parganas, once in a week until further order.
It is further ordered that the accused person shall not mis-use the liberty granted by this Court and he shall not tamper with any evidence orally or documentary during the trial. He shall not absent himself on any day during trial and shall not commit any offence while on bail. He shall give his cell phone number to the local police station and shall not change it without prior permission of the trial court and he shall not in any manner try to delay the trial. The petitioner shall not leave the jurisdiction of the trial court without taking leave from the Court below. In case of violation of any of the conditions the trial Court will be at liberty to cancel the bail without making any further reference to this Court.
Be it mentioned, that anything said herein shall not be construed as an expression of opinion on the merits of the case by this Court.
Accordingly, C.R.M. (NDPS) 1156 of 2025 is disposed of.
Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, duly applied for, be given to the parties upon compliance of all requisite formalities.
