(NDPS) 1237 of 2022 In Re: - An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in connection with Contai Police Station Case No. 105 of 2022 dated 04.03.2022 under Sections 20 (b) (ii) (c) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985. And In the matter of: Gobinda Giri ....petitioner.

Mr. Subrata Santra ...for the petitioner.

Mr. Anwar Hossain Mr. Mirza Firoj Ahmmed Begg ...for the State.

Commercial quantity of narcotics was seized from the vehicle driven by the petitioner. Constructive possession over the commercial quantity of narcotics at this stage cannot be overlooked. In such circumstances, the petitioner is unable to overcome the restrictions under Section 37 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985.

Consequently, we are unable to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected. C.R.M. (NDPS) 1237 of 2022 is dismissed.
