BY ADV. SRI.E.C.BINEESH, PUBLIC PROSECUTOR
THIS CRIMINAL MISC. CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
06.07.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
CRL.MC NO. 2937 OF 2021
1
ORDER
Heard the counsel for the Petitioner and the
learned Public Prosecutor.
2. Accused No.2 came up to quash Annexure A1
occurrence report and A2 complaint in crime No.
65/2018 of Excise Enforcement and Anti-narcotic
Special Squad, Kollam District now pending as
S.C.No.810/2020 of 3rd Additional Sessions Court,
Kollam, on the ground that the house from where
the Hashish Oil was seized is belonged to his
father and that he is an M-Tech student and what
is seized is only an intermediate quantity.
3. At the fag end of the argument it was
also submitted by the learned counsel for the
petitioner that directions may be issued to the
trial court to consider the bail application, if
any moved, on the dame day. Since, it is an
application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. this Court
cannot go into the merits and demerits of the CRL.MC NO. 2937 OF 2021
case by conducting a roving enquiry especially
in a matter of seizer of Hashish Oil from the
house of accused No.1. Accused No.2 is
admittedly the son of the accused No.1, who is
doing M-Tech. As such, there is no reason for
exercising the power under Section 482 Cr.P.C.
4. It is also not proper to direct the
lower court to consider the bail application on
the same day in the event of the appearance of
the petitioner. But I hope that the learned
sessions judge will take up the bail application
and will pass appropriate orders, taking into
consideration of the seriousness of the offences
and attending circumstances, without causing
much delay.
Crl.M.C. is dismissed.
