IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA

Item No.48 CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION Ct.No.35 dc.

Rejected C.R.M. (NDPS) 1698 of 2025 In Re : An Application for bail under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, filed in connection with Shalimar GRPS Police Station Case No. 39 of 2024 dated 20.07.2024 under Section 21(c) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985 read with Section 27 of the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940. And In Re : Bijoy Karketta and another ... Petitioners.

Mr. Md. Wasim Akram, Ms. Sabrina Parveen ... For the Petitioners.

Mr. Kunal Ganguly ... For the State.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioners submits that the subject-matter of recovery in this case is 840 bottles of phensedyl.

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

Having considered the quantum of recovery and the period of detention, I direct that the petitioners would renew their prayer for bail after the evidence of seizure list witnesses is over. At this stage, the prayer for bail of the petitioners is rejected.

The application for bail, being CRM (NDPS) 1698 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.
