Shefali Dutta @ Sefali Dutta v. State Of West Bengal

23.12.2022 Sl. No.6 akd [Rejected] C. R. M. (NDPS) 1525 of 2022 In Re: An application for bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure filed on 15.12.2022 in connection with Hanskhali Police Station Case No.667 of 2021 dated 24.09.2021 under Section 21(c) of the NDPS Act. (NDPS Case No.103 of 2021) And In Re: Shefali Dutta @ Sefali Dutta ... ... Petitioner Ms. Sananda Bhattacharyya ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Sanjay Bardhan Mr. Palash Ch. Majhi ... ... 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. 42 bottles of phensedyl syrup containing codeine phosphate, which is above commercial quantity from the possession of the petitioner. His bail prayer was rejected earlier. Under such circumstances and in view of the 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.
