Anticipatory bail application (CRM (A) 720 of 2026, decided 02.04.2026, Jay Sengupta, J.) under S. 438 CrPC / S. 482 BNSS rejected in NDPS matter (Murutia PS Case No.208/2025, Ss. 21(c)/25/29 NDPS Act); grounds: other incriminating case-diary materials including phone call conversations with the arrested accused and tower-location proximity, and the restriction in S. 37 NDPS Act; no precedent cases cited.
What did the court decide?
Considering the other incriminating materials available in the case diary and the restriction contained in Section 37 of the NDPS Act, the court did not consider this to be a fit case for granting anticipatory bail to the present petitioners. ¶12
