Judgment / Order
05/01/2022
1. Petitioner has filed this second bail application under Section
439 of Cr.P.C.
2. F.I.R. No.209/2019 was registered at Police Station Purani
Tonk, District Tonk (Raj.) for offence under Sections 8 & 20 of
NDPS Act.
3. It is contended by counsel for the petitioner that the
statement of the Recovery Officer has been recorded. Neither the
contraband was recovered from the conscious possession of the
petitioner nor the house from which recovery was effected was
belonging to the petitioner. It is also contended that on the date
(2 of 3) [CRLMB-19115/2021]
when the recovery was effected, one person died in police custody
and police has falsely implicated the present petitioner. The
Recovery Officer has admitted that petitioner was not found in the
house. He has also admitted that none of the persons informed
the Recovery Officer that petitioner ever entered the house from
where the recovery was effected.
4. It is contended that there are no call details to connect the
petitioner with the crime. It is also contended that the alleged
search was conducted in night. No reason was recorded for
conducting the seizure at night. The Provision of the NDPS Act
were flouted.
5. Learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the second bail
application.
6. I have considered the contentions.
7. Taking note of the fact that from the statement of Recovery
Officer, it is evident that recovery was not effected from the
petitioner and the house from where the recovery was effected
does not belong to the present petitioner and petitioner has
remained in custody for a period of more than twenty six months,
the search was conducted at night, no reasons were recorded for
conducting the search at night, hence, I deem it proper to allow
the second bail application.
8. This Second bail application is accordingly allowed and it is
directed that accused petitioner shall be released on bail provided
he furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees
One Lac only) together with two sureties in the sum of
(3 of 3) [CRLMB-19115/2021]
Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand only) each to the satisfaction
of the learned trial court with the stipulation that he shall appear
before that Court and any court to which the matter is transferred,
on all subsequent dates of hearing and as and when called upon to
do so.
9. However, it is made clear that if the petitioner repeats the
offence, State would be free to move application for cancellation
of bail before the concerned Court.
