14.07.2026 Serial no. 31 [G.S.D] CRM (NDPS) 988 of 2026 In re : An Application for Bail under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/under Section 483 of the BNSS, 2023 in connection with NDPS Case No. 3of 2026 arising out of Jamboni PS Case No. 124 of 2025 dated 31.08.2025 u/s 21(c)/29 of the NDPSAct -And- In the matter of : Natun Rana @ Nutun @ Toton @Tutun … … Petitioner(s) Mr. Soumyajit Das Mahapatra Mr. Supriyo Das Ms. Upasana Banerjee Mr. Bisal Roy … for the Petitioner(s) Mr. Pritam Roy Mr. Saswata Chatterjee … for the State-respondent(s) Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the subject-matter of alleged recovery in the present case is 1 kg 800 gm codeine phosphate; 1 gm Heroin and a dagger. Learned advocate also submits that the petitioner is in custody for 10 months; charge-sheet has been submitted and the prosecution has relied upon 18 witnesses in order to prove its case, as such, there is no possibility of the trial being concluded in the near future. Therefore, learned advocate prays that the petitioner may be released on bail. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the present petitioner was convicted in another offence and the Hon’ble Supreme Court had been pleased to suspend the sentence. Consequent to 2 which, the petitioner being released have committed the offence. Be that as it may, the State did not prefer any application for Cancellation of Bail before the Hon’ble Supreme Court in respect of the suspension of sentence. However, so far as the quantum of recovery and the period of detention of the present petitioner as also the fact that some time will be required to take the trial to its logical conclusion, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is Allowed. Accordingly, the petitioner viz, Natun Rana @ Nutun @ Toton @Tutun shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/-(Rupees Twenty Thousand only), with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand only) each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Judge, Special Court (NDPS Act), 1st Court, Jhargram. If on bail, the petitioner shall also make himself physically available on each and every date so fixed by the learned Special court/trial court and shall not leave the district of Jhargram without prior permission of the learned Special court/trial court. Accordingly, CRM (NDPS) 988 of 2026 is allowed. Memo of Evidence submitted be kept with the record. 3 Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon’ble High Court, Calcutta. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties subject to compliance with all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
