(Through hybrid Mode)
1. None appears for the petitioner when the matter is called.
2. This is an application under Section 483 of the B.N.S.S. Act for grant of bail to the petitioner-Nayan Chand Nayak in connection with P.R. Case No. 584 of 2024-25 corresponding to 2 (a) C.C. Case No. 14 of 2025 (N) pending in the file of the learned 1st Additional Sessions Judge-cum-Special Judge, Berhampur, Ganjam for commission of offences punishable under Sections 20 (b) (ii) (C)/ 29 of the NDPS Act on the allegation of transporting 160 kg. of contraband ganja.
3. It appears that the ganja was being transported with three vehicles namely, Innova Crysta bearing Registration No. MH- 12RW-0810, Hyundai Xcent Car bearing Registration No. OD-33C- 1944 and one Maruti Suzuki Baleno Car bearing Registration No. OD-02BS-3979.
4. Considering the quantity of ganja seized, Section 37 of the NDPS Act will be a bar for releasing the petitioner on bail, I am not inclined to entertain this prayer for bail for which the same is dismissed. p. 2 puspa
5. However, liberty is granted to the petitioner to move for bail afresh, if there is delay in the trial.
