6. The F.S.L. report has come from the Regional Forensic Science Laborary, Bhagalpur and it has endorsed that the content is Pyeevon Spas Plus NRX which is used as an analgesic to reduce the moderate pain.
7. however, taking into account the aforesaid submissions put forwarded by the parties as also that it is below the commercial quantity, he is in custody since 22.03.2024 and has no criminal antecedent, this Court is inclined to extend him the privilege of bail with conditions.
