And In Re: Madan Das ... ... Petitioner Mr. Sabyasachi Chatterjee Mr. Akshdeep Mukherjee Mr. Badrul Karim ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Nilay Chakraborty Mr. Biswarup Roy ... ... for the State Heard the learned Advocates 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. 86.2 kgs. of Ganja, which is above commercial quantity from the possession of the petitioner. In view of the aforesaid incriminating materials and 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.
