Versus

• State Of Chhattisgarh Through Station House Officer, Police Station Gole Bazar, District Raipur Chhattisgarh ---- Respondent For Applicant : Shri C.R.Sahu, Advocate For Respondent/State : Shri Akshara Amit, PL Hon'ble Smt. Justice Rajani Dubey Order On Board 14/11/2019 The applicant has filed this application under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of regular bail as he is in custody in connection with Crime No.219/2019 registered at police station Gole Bazar, District Raipur (CG) for the offence punishable under Section 20(B) of the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act. Case of the prosecution in brief is that on receiving information, the police seized 1.450 kgs. of contraband from the possession of the applicant.

Counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in the crime. He further submits that the applicant has no criminal antecedent and that the quantity seized from him is

less than the commercial quantity. He submits that the applicant is in jail since 19.8.2019 and looking to the conduct of the prosecution it is clear that the trial will take time for its conclusion. On the other hand counsel for the State opposes the bail application.

Having heard counsel for the parties, considered the totality of the fact, in particular the detention period of the applicant, I am inclined to release him on regular bail. Accordingly, his application filed under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is allowed. It is directed that in the event of the applicant's furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs. 50,000/- with one surety for the like sum to the satisfaction of the concerned Court, he shall be released on bail.
