Anarul Haque v. The State Of West Bengal

AD 19 IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA March 23, 2026 Circuit Bench at Jalpaiguri Ct. 6 Appellate Side ssi CRM(A) 132 of 2026 An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Jaigaon P.S. Case No.276 of 2025 dated 22.11.2025 under Sections 21 ( c)/29 of the NDPS Act.

And In the matter of: Anarul Haq ue ... petitioner Mr. Kalipada Das ... for the petitioner Mr. Kallol Acharjee Ms. Sukanya Adhikary ... for the State Report filed on behalf of the State is taken on record. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that other than the statement of a co-accused, there is no other incriminating material available against the petitioner.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. He submits that other than the statement of the co-accused, there are phone call records of conversations between the petitioner and the principal accused.

Considering the above, the other incriminating materials available in the case diary and the restriction contained in Section 37 of the NDPS Act, I do not consider this is to be a fit case for granting anticipatory bail.

Accordingly, the application for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is rejected.
