Page No.# 2/3 with Dabaka P.S. Case No. 135/2025 (G.R. Case No. 808/2025) under Sections 21(b)/27A of the NDPS Act. The allegation as reflected in the FIR is that on 22.07.2025, an information was received from a secret source that dealing of huge quantity of NDPS articles were going to happen on Dabaka Town by one drug paddler namely Mehbub Alom, there after O.C. of Dabaka P.S. made a G.D.E. No. 10 dated 22/07/2025 and deputed a team to take needful action and reaching the place of occurrence, the team found one Medhbub Alom and apprehended him and during the search suspected drugs were recovered from his possession and 1.13 numbers of plastic container filled with suspected heroine, 2.11 numbers of empty plastic container total weight 19 grams were found. Accordingly, FIR was registered as Dabaka P.S. Case No. 135/2025 (G.R. Case No. 808/2025) under Sections 21(b)/27A of the NDPS Act and the petitioner was arrested. Case diary is received and perused. It appears that no recovery was made from the possession of the present petitioner but from the C.D. it appears that petitioner is involved in the said activity of supply of illicit drugs which is discernable in the statement of the petitioner himself. But other than that, there appears no cogent materials against the present petitioner and the recovery was made from other accused person. Be that as it may, as the amount involved is intermediate quantity and the petitioner has spent 45 days in custody, prayer for bail is allowed. Accordingly, it is directed that the petitioner namely Shakir Hussain be released on bail in connection with the aforementioned case, on furnishing a bond of Rs. Rs.
