Hon'ble Smt. Justice Rajani Dubey Order on Board 22/10/2019

1. This is the first bail application filed under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of regular bail to the applicant who has been arrested in connection with Crime No.76/2019, registered at Police StationG.R.P, Bilaspur (C.G.) for the offence punishable under Section 20(B) of the Narcotic Drugs & Psychotropic substance Act, 1985.

2. As per prosecution story on 15.06.2019, on the basis of information received from informant, the applicant has been searched by the police officials and seized total 16.250 Kg contraband article Ganja from her possession. Offence has been registered and she has been arrested.

3. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the applicant submits that applicant is innocent and she has been falsely implicated in this case. 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 charge-sheet has already been filed and the applicant is in custody since 15.06.2019, 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. It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail on executing a personal bond in the sum of Rs. 50,000/- with one surety for the like amount to the satisfaction of the concerned trial Court for her appearance as and when directed.
