Mr. Sudip Guha ...for the Petitioners. Mr. Nilay Chakraborty, Mr. Chattu Roy ...for the State. Apprehending arrest in connection with Sitai Police Station Case no.222 of 2024 dated 22.11.2024 under Sections 20(a)(i)/29 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, the present application has been preferred. Mr. Guha, learned advocate appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have been falsely implicated on the rudiments of unfounded allegations. Upon completion of investigation chargesheet has also been submitted and as such, custodial interrogation of the petitioners may not be necessary.

Having heard the learned advocates and considering the documents in the case diary, the nature of accusations and the extent of complicity of the petitioners in the alleged offence, I am not inclined to exercise discretion in their favour. 2 The application for anticipatory bail, being CRM (A) 842 of 2025, accordingly, is dismissed. All parties shall act on the server copies of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. (Tapabrata Chakraborty, J.)
