Mr.Bhanu Pratap Singh, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ARUN KUMAR JHA ORAL ORDER 06-06-2022 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP for the State.

Let the defect (s), as pointed out by the office, be removed within a period of four weeks from today. In the present case, the petitioner seeks bail in connection with N.D.P.S. Case No.128 of 2021 arising out of Kanti P.S. Case No. 573 of 2021 registered for the alleged offences under Sections 08/20 (b) (ii) B of the NDPS Act. Allegedly the petitioner has been apprehended with two bags of Ganja weighing 7.750 KG from a public place. It has been submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner has been falsely implicated in the present case and the witnesses of the seizure list are Home-

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.3178 of 2022(2) dt.06-06-2022 2/2 Guards, though a number of public persons were present at the spot. The charge sheet has already been submitted in the case. The petitioner is in custody since 09.09.2021 and he is having clean antecedent.

Having regard to the facts and circumstances and considering the recovery of more than 7 KG of Ganja from the possession of the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail at this stage.

Accordingly, his prayer for grant of bail is rejected. However, if the trial is not concluded within six months, the petitioner will be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail.
