Nur Selim @ Chhottu v. State Of West Bengal

17.12.2025

IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA

Item No. M/L.626 CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION Ct.No.35 dc.

Rejected C.R.M. (NDPS) 1286 of 2025 In Re : An Application for bail under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, filed in connection with Lalgola Police Station Case No. 787 of 2024 dated 28.07.2024 under Sections 21(c)/29 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985.

And In Re : Nur Selim @ Chhottu ... Petitioner.

Mr. Jisan Iqubal Hossain ... For the Petitioner.

Mr. Ashok Das ... For the State.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for 1 year 5 months and allegedly 400 grams of heroin was recovered from the possession of the petitioner. It has also been submitted that investigation is concluded, charges have been framed and witness action has commenced. As such, petitioner prays for bail on any stringent condition.

Learned advocate appearing for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for bail.

Having considered the quantum of seizure, I am of the view that the petitioner has failed to overcome the rigors of Section 37 of the NDPS Act. As such, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected.

Petitioner would be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail after the evidence of seizure list witnesses is over.

The application for bail, being CRM (NDPS) 1286 of 2025, is, thus, dismissed.

All concerned parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court.

Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
