D/L48 02.04.2026 Bpg. Allowed C.R.M. (NDPS) 520 of 2026 In Re: An application for bail under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Kumarganj Police Station Case No.323 of 2025 dated 28.08.2025 under Sections 21(c)/22(c)/23(c)/27A of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985; Khirajuddin Mulla @ Firajuddin Molla Versus The State of West Bengal Mr. Kaushik Choudhury Mr. Dwaipayan Panda Mr. Tridib Das. …for the petitioner. Ms. Sreyashee Biswas Mr. Sachit Talukdar. …for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the subject matter of the case relates to alleged recovery of 100 bottles of phensedyl and the petitioner is in custody for about 7 months. The prosecution has relied upon 17 witnesses in order to prove its case, as such, there is no possibility of the trial concluding in near future and the petitioner may be released on bail. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the prosecution has sufficient materials in their custody to prove its case. Having regard to the fact that 17 witnesses have been cited by the prosecution, I am of the opinion that as charge-sheet has been submitted and some time will be required to take the trial 2 to its logical conclusion, further detention of the petitioner is unwarranted. As such, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. The petitioner, namely, Khirajuddin Mulla @ Firajuddin Molla shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/- (Rupees Twenty Thousand only) with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- each, one of whom must be local to the satisfaction of the learned Judge, Special Court, under NDPS Act-cum-learned Additional Sessions Judge, 3rd Court, Dakshin Dinajpur. If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date fixed by the learned special court and shall not leave the district of Dakshin Dinajpur without prior permission of the learned special court. Accordingly, CRM(NDPS) 520 of 2026 is allowed. All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
