30.07.2026 IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA Item No.4 CRIMINAL MISCELLANEOUS JURISDICTION Ct.No.35 dc. Allowed C.R.M. (NDPS) 1370 of 2026 In Re : An Application for bail under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 filed in connection with Kaliachak Police Station Case No. 411 of 2025 dated 14.03.2025 under Sections 21(c)/25/27A/29/30 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985. And In Re : Sofi Sk @ Safikul Sk ... Petitioner. Md. Wasim Akram, Ms. Sabrina Parveen ... For the Petitioner. Mr. L. Vishal Kumar ... For the State. Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner is in custody for more than five and a half months and there has been no recovery from the present petitioner. Learned advocate appearing for the State, on the other hand, opposes the prayer for bail and submits that the petitioner was FIR named and fled away from the spot. A mobile phone was recovered from the spot which belonged to the present petitioner. The case diary presently do not reflect that any material has been collected by the investigating agency to correlate the mobile phone so collected at the spot with the present petitioner. Having regard to the overall circumstances of the present case and seizure took place on 2 March 2025, I am inclined to release the petitioner on bail. As such, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. Accordingly, the petitioner viz., Sofi Sk @ Safikul Sk shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/-, with two sureties of Rs.10,000/- each, one of whom must be local, to the satisfaction of the learned Judge, Special Court under the NDPS Act, 4th Court, Malda. If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date before the learned Special Court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of the district of Malda without prior permission of the learned Special Court. The application for bail, being CRM (NDPS) 1370 of 2026, is, thus, disposed of. All concerned 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 with all requisite formalities. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
