For Respondent/State - Shri Anant Bajpai, PL. Hon'ble Shri Justice Goutam Bhaduri Order 14/06/2016 1.

The applicant has preferred this application for grant of bail as he is arrested in connection with Crime No. 93/2016 registered in Police Station Tikrapara, Raipur, District Raipur (C.G.) for offence punishable under section 20-B of Narcotic Drugs Psychotropic Substances Act. 2.

As per the prosecution case on 9/03/2016 on raid being made from the possession of the applicant 1.400 kg of cannabis were recovered. 3.

Learned counsel for the applicant submits that applicant has been falsely implicated in this case. He submits that charge sheet has been filed, no further evidence is required and considering the quantity of cannabis seized, the applicant may be released on bail. 4.
