HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE UMA SHANKER VYAS Judgment / Order 02/09/2023 This bail application has been filed by the petitioner under Section 439 Cr.P.C. seeking regular bail in FIR No.428/2023 registered at Police Station New Mandi Hindaun, District Karauli for the offence(s) under Section(s) 8/21 & 8/29 of NDPS Act.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the accused-petitioner is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in this case. He further submits (Downloaded on 11/11/2023 at 07:44:36 PM) [2023:RJ-JP:20456] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-11329/2023] that contraband allegedly recovered from the possession of the accused-petitioner is less than commercial quantity. He also submits that the accused-petitioner has been in judicial custody since long and the conclusion of the trial will take long time, hence the petitioner may be enlarged on bail.

Learned Government Advocate-cum-Additional Advocate General appearing for the State has opposed the bail application.

Taking into consideration the overall facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that contraband allegedly recovered from the possession of the accused-petitioner is less than commercial quantity, but without expressing any opinion on the merits and demerits of the case, this Court deems it just and proper to enlarge the petitioner on bail.

Accordingly, the bail application filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. is allowed and it is ordered that accused-petitioner Saurabh @ Sonu Jat S/o Onkar Singh shall be released on bail, provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.1,00,000/- with two sureties of Rs.50,000/- each to the satisfaction of the trial Court, with the stipulation that the petitioner shall appear before (Downloaded on 11/11/2023 at 07:44:36 PM) [2023:RJ-JP:20456] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-11329/2023] that Court on all subsequent dates of hearing and as and when called upon to do so.
