For Respondent/State : Shri UKS Chandel, Panel Lawyer. Hon'ble Shri Justice Arvind Singh Chandel Order On Board 29/06/2018

1. The applicant has preferred this first bail application under Section 439 of Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail as he is arrested in connection with crime no. 95/2018, registered at Police Out Basdei, Police Station Surajpur District Surajpur (C.G.) for the offence punishable under Section 20 B of NDPS Act.

2. On the basis of information received from the informant on 04-032018, the police searched the shop of the applicant and seized 2.5 Kgs. of Ganja from possession of the applicant. Offence has been registered and the applicant has been arrested on 05-03-

2018.

3. Learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the Applicant submits that applicant is innocent and he has been falsely implicated in the present case. He further submits that there is no previous history of the applicant and charge-sheet has already been filed and trial will likely to take some time, therefore, the applicant may released on bail.

4. Per contra, learned counsel appearing on behalf of State opposes the bail application.

5. I have heard learned Counsel for both the parties and perused the case diary.

6. Considering the above facts and circumstances of the case, particularly considering the fact that seized Ganja is only 2.5 Kgs, charge-sheet has already been filed, the applicant is in custody since 05-03-2018 and trial will likely to take some time, without further commenting on merit of the case, I am inclined to release the applicant on bail.

7. Accordingly, the bail application is allowed.

8. It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail on executing a personal bond for a sum of Rs. 10,000/- with one surety for the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial court. Thereafter, he will appear before the Trial Court on each and every date given by the said Court.
