13.02.2026 Serial no. 201 [G.S.D] CRM (NDPS) 249 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. 243 of 2022 arising out of Beldanga PS Case No. 780 of 2022 dt. 16.12.2022 u/s 21(c)/29 of the NDPS Act. 1985. -And- In the matter of : Ashis Baral … Petitioner(s) Mr. Somnath Adhikary … for the Petitioner(s) Mr. Sanjay Banerjee Ms. Smita Saha … for the State-respondent(s) Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for three months nine days and has surrendered before the learned jurisdictional court on 04.11.2025. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that 6000 bottles of phensedyl were recovered from a bolero car which belongs to the present petitioner. Having considered the quantum of seizure and the petitioner having surrendered within the fold of law very recently, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail at this stage. 2 Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is Rejected. Accordingly, CRM(NDPS) 249 of 2026 is dismissed. Pending application(s), if any, is also disposed of. 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.)
