                                            -And-

                In the matter of : Jenarul Haque
                                                               ... ... Petitioner(s)

Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the

petitioner is in custody for about eight months; charges

SPONSORED

have been framed and relevant witnesses have been

examined. Learned advocate also submits that two of the

independent witnesses who were present and signed the

seizure list in respect of the contraband who implicated the

present petitioner have been declared hostile by the

prosecution.

Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer

for bail.

I have taken into account the total seizure in the

present case which is more than 2 kg.

2

However, having considered the period of detention

of the present petitioner and the quantum of seizure, I am

of the opinion that Section 37 of the NDPS Act is diluted, as

such, without entering into the merits of the case, I am

inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail.

Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is

Allowed.

Accordingly, the petitioner viz, Jenarul Haque shall

be released on bail upon furnishing bond of Rs.20,000/-

(Rupees Twenty Thousand only), 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 under NDPS Act, 4th Court, Malda.

If on bail, the petitioner shall also make himself

physically available on each and every date so fixed by the

learned Special court/trial court and shall not leave the

district of Malda without prior permission of the learned

Special court/trial court.

Accordingly, CRM (NDPS) 1447 of 2026 is allowed.

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.
