06.01.2026 Item no. 56. Court No.3. Rakib In the High Court at Calcutta Circuit Bench at Jalpaiguri Criminal Miscellaneous Jurisdiction CRM (A) 986 of 2025 In Re: An Application for Anticipatory Bail under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973/Under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Kotwali Police Station Case No. 98 of 2024 dated 13.02.2024 under Sections 21(C) of the Narcotic Drugs & Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985. And In the matter of : Subhash Chandra Roy. ……Petitioner. Ms. Riya Agarwal ……for the Petitioner. Mr. Ujjwal Luksom Mr. Chattu Roy ……for the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has handed over his vehicle on the basis of an agreement to one Manoj Roy and the vehicle at the relevant point of time was not in his custody. The genesis of this fact is based on a notarized document. Learned advocate for the State is present and opposes the bail application. 2 I find from the record of the case that the earlier the anticipatory bail application of the present petitioner was rejected in CRM (A) 178 of 2024. Having regard to the nature of the documents presented and its veracity, I am not inclined to accept such contention at a belated stage. Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner in CRM (A) 986 of 2025 is dismissed. All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order 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 with all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
