……for the Air Customs Authority.
Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner submits that petitioner was allegedly intercepted with 14031 Gms. of Ganja at the Airport by the Customs Authorities.
Learned advocate for the Air Customs Authorities opposes the prayer for bail. Records of the case reflect that on 20th August, 2026 complaint has already been submitted before the jurisdictional Court. Petitioner is in custody since 21st June, 2026.
Having regard to the aforesaid, I am of the opinion that petitioner may be released on bail in view of the observations of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Barnali Bag Vs.

As such, petitioner, namely Syed Arbuza Hussain @ Syed Arbaaz Hussain be enlarged on bail subject to 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 Learned Judge, NDPS Act, 8th Court, Barasat.
If on bail, the petitioner shall be physically present on each and every date fixed before the learned Trial Court and shall not leave the jurisdiction of District of North 24 Parganas and Kolkata without the prior permission of the learned Special Court. Additionally petitioner shall make himself available before the investigating officer or the Principal Commissioner, Air Customs as and when called for.
With the aforesaid observations CRM (NDPS) 2092 of 2026 is allowed.
All parties shall act in terms of server copy of the order downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
