====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE MOHIT KUMAR SHAH ORAL ORDER 30-03-2022 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned A.P.P. for the State.

The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Suppi P.S. Case No. 153 of 2021 for the offence registered under Sections 8, 20(b) (ii) (B) of the N.D.P.S. Act. The allegation is regarding the police officials having received secret information that certain miscreants were carrying ganja/Charas whereafter the house of the petitioner was raided and a search was conducted whereupon 700 grams ganja was recovered.

The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner is innocent, has been falsely implicated in the present case, is having a clean antecedent and he is languishing in custody since 12.08.2021. The learned counsel for the petitioner has further submitted that the quantity of ganja seized from the possession of the petitioner is much less than the small quantity

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.60824 of 2021(2) dt.30-03-2022 2/2 defined in the schedule notified under the provisions of the N.D.P.S. Act, 1985, hence there is no impediment in grant of bail to the petitioner herein.

Per contra, the learned counsel for the State has vehemently opposed the prayer for bail.

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner and taking into account the materials available on record as also considering the fact that the quantity of ganja seized from the house of the petitioner is much less than the small quantity defined in the schedule notified under the provisions of the N.D.P.S. Act, 1985 apart from the fact that the petitioner is having a clean antecedent, I deem it fit and proper to direct for release of the petitioner herein on regular bail. Accordingly, the petitioner, above named, is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Special Judge, Sitamarhi in connection with Suppi P.S. Case No. 153 of 2021.
