Ct.No.28 Sourav [Rejected] C.R.M. (NDPS) 1943 of 2023 In Re:- An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure arising out of Jalangi P.S. Case No. 30 of 2022 dated 24.01.2022 under Sections 21(C)/29 of the NDPS Act and under section 25 (1)(a) of the Arms Act.

In the matter of : Nur Mahammad @ Nur Mahammad Mondal @ Jadu ... Petitioner.

Mr. Arnab Chatterjee, Ms. Poulami Bose ...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Soumik Ganguli, ...for the State.

1. Petitioner submits that co-accused Sanarul Sk. has been enlarged on bail. He prays for bail on parity.

2. Learned lawyer for the State submits petitioner is not on the same footing with the said co-accused. Petitioner was in custody in other cases. He used to run a racket in trafficking of narcotics from jail.

3. We have considered the materials on record. Petitioner appears to be a daring person. He was in custody in other cases. He smuggled mobile phones into jail and used to communicate with co-accused from jail and traffic in narcotics. Possibility of commission of similar offence if released on bail cannot be ruled out. There are ample materials connecting the petitioner with the trafficking in narcotics. He has criminal antecedents.

4. Under such circumstances, we are not inclined the grant bail to the petitioner.

5. This application for bail is, thus, rejected. (Gaurang Kanth, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)
