Salea Bibi v. State Of West Bengal

31.10.2022 Sl. No.13 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. (NDPS) 1289 of 2022 In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 18.10.2022 in connection with Airport Police Station Case No. 88 of 2022 dated 11.03.2022 under Sections 21(c)/22(c) of the NDPS Act.

And In Re: Salea Bibi ... ... Petitioner Mrs. Juin Dutta Chakraborty ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Sanjay Bardhan Ms. Baisakhi Chatterjee ... ... for the State Heard the learned advocate appearing for both the parties. We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses including contemporaneous document i.e. seizure memo disclose recovery of narcotic substance i.e. 6.78 ltrs. of codeine mixture, which is above commercial quantity from the joint possession of the petitioner and co-accused. In view of the aforesaid incriminating materials on record and statutory restrictions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. The application for bail is thus rejected.
