Petitioner, already in custody, seeks bail in Bihiya PS Case No. 190 of 2017 registered under Sections 20 and 22 of the NDPS Act.

The allegation in brief is that 90 KG of Ganja was recovered from the pick-up van being driven by the petitioner. Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that three persons were apprehended and the petitioner is driver of the van. Ajay Singh who is said to have been scouting the pick-up van in another vehicle was granted bail by a coordinate Bench of this Court. The petitioner has no criminal antecedent.

Having considered the huge quantity of Ganja recovered from the possession of the petitioner the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected.

The trial court is directed to expedite the trial and preferably conclude the same within a period of one and half year. Snkumar/- (Arun Kumar, J.) U T
