The petitioners were arrested on 17.01.2026 and since then they are in custody. Charge-sheet has already been submitted, as such, the petitioners may be released on bail. Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail. The prosecution has relied upon 12 witnesses in support of its case which will take some time to take the trial to its logical conclusion. Moreover, the report submitted by the police authorities do not reflect any previous antecedents of the present petitioners. 2 Having considered the same, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioners on bail. Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioners is Allowed. Accordingly, the petitioners viz, Dhaneswar Barman, Monoranjan Barman, Rahul Barman and Jaydeb Sarkar shall be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/-(Rupees Twenty Thousand only) each, 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), Nadia at Krishnagar If on bail, the petitioners shall also make themselves physically available on each and every date so fixed by the learned Special court/trial court and shall not leave the district of Nadia without prior permission of the learned Special court/trial court. Accordingly, CRM (NDPS) 1761 of 2026 is allowed. Pending application(s), if any, is also disposed of. Memo of evidence submitted be kept with the record.
