APP Mr. Bankim Pal … for the State-respondent(s) Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for more than ten months and number of witnesses has already been examined. Learned advocate also submits that there are no relevant witnesses left to be examined by the prosecution, as such, learned advocate prays that the petitioner may be released on bail. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that in continuity of the initial seizure of FICN, some FICN were also recovered from the present petitioner and there are antecedents of the present petitioner which includes an offence under the Arms Act and Fake Currency. 2 Having considered the previous antecedents and the fact that the seizure was effected from the conscious possession of the petitioner, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail. Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is Rejected. Accordingly, CRM (M) 1021 of 2026 is dismissed. Pending application(s), if any, is also disposed of. Memo of evidence submitted be kept with the record. 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.)
