Order
04/09/2023
1. The instant bail application has been filed under Section 439
of Cr.P.C. on behalf of the petitioner, who has been arrested in
connection with FIR No.101/2022 registered at Police Station
G.R.P. Thana, District Sawai Madhopur for the offence under
Section 8/21 of NDPS Act.
2. It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that the
accused-petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. He
further contends that there has been total non-compliance of
Section 52-A of the NDPS Act, according to which, the process of
drawing of samples has to be in the presence and under the
supervision of the Magistrate and the entire exercise has to be
certified by him to be correct. Learned counsel has relied upon the
(2 of 2) [CRLMB-743/2023]
judgment of the Hon'ble Apex Court rendered in the case of
Simarnjit Singh Vs. State of Punjab; Criminal Appeal
No.1443/2023, decided on 09.05.2023. He submits that petitioner
is in jail and trial of the case will take long time in its conclusion.
3. Learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the bail application.
4. I have considered the contentions.
5. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances
of the case; considering the arguments advanced by learned
counsel for the petitioner, especially the facts that there has been
total non-compliance of Section 52-A of the NDPS Act and trial of
the case will take long time in its conclusion, but without
commenting anything on the merits/demerits of the case, I deem
it proper to allow the bail application.
6. This bail application is accordingly allowed and it is directed
that accused-petitioner - Malua S/o Sh. Hori Lal shall be
released on bail provided he furnishes a personal bond in the sum
of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand Only) together with two
sureties in the sum of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five 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.
