06.10.2026 86 Ct. No. 37 S.D. Allowed C.R.M.(A) 3244 of 2026 In Re:- An application for anticipatory bail under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 in connection with Balurghat Police Station Case No. 350 of 2026 dated 29.05.2026 under Sections 21(c)/22(c)/23(c)/28/29 of the NDPS Act, 1985 pending in the Court of the learned Special Judge (under NDPS Act) cum ADJ, 3rd Court, Dakshin Dinajpur at Balurghat. And In Re : Bapi Barman ….petitioner Mr. Kaushik Choudhury Mr. Dwaipayan Panda …for the petitioner Mr. Subhas Chandra Saha Mr. Shataroop Purkyastha …for the State Petitioner is sought to be implicated on the basis of statements of co-accused made while in custody. Materials in the case diary at this stage do not establish a nexus between the seized commercial quantity of the narcotics and the petitioner. In such circumstances, I am of the view that the petitioner is able to overcome the restrictions under Section 37 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985. Consequently, I grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, I direct that in the event of arrest, the petitioner shall be released on bail upon furnishing a bond of Rs.10,000/-, with two sureties of like amount each, to the satisfaction of the arresting officer and also be subject to the 2 conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the B.N.S.S., 2023. The petitioner will report before the Investigating Officer once a week till the conclusion of the investigation. The petitioner shall appear on every date before the Jurisdictional Court on and from the date fixed for appearance of the accused and in default the jurisdictional Court will pass appropriate order to secure the presence of the petitioner in Court including cancelling the anticipatory bail granted without further reference to this Court. This application for anticipatory bail is, thus, allowed. (Debangsu Basak, J.) SUROJIT DAS Digitally signed by SUROJIT DAS Date: 2026.10.06 18:13:15 +05'30'
