The petitioners seek bail in connection with Sessions Trial No.05 of 2015 arising out of Shikarpur P.S.Case No.414 of 2014 registered under Sections 20,22,23,24 and 27A of the N.D.P.S. Act.

The petitioners were apprehended by the police and from the possession of petitioner no.1 Radha Sah 500 gms charas and 3 kg. Ganja, from the possession of petitioner no.2 Tufani Mahto 500 gms charas and his identity card and from the possession of petitioner no.3, Akhilesh Kumar Thakur, 1 kg. charas and his identity card were recovered.

It is submitted that the search and seizure and also the seizure-list were not made in accordance with law. Considering the facts that huge quantity of charas besides 3 kgs. ganja were recovered from the possessions of the petitioners, I am not inclined to enlarge them on bail and accordingly, the same is rejected.
