==================== B.A.No. 4300 of 2015 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 22nd day of July, 2015

O R D E R

Petition filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C.

2.

Petitioner is said to have committed the offences under Sections 20(b)(ii)B of NDPS Act, 1985. He was found to be in possession of 1.200 Kgs. Ganja.

3.

Heard.

4.

Learned counsel submits that the petitioner has been in custody since 30.06.2015 and he may be granted bail. The quantity of Ganja seized from him suggests the purpose for which he had kept it in his possession. The application is opposed by the learned Public Prosecutor. I am not satisfied that if he is released on bail, he will not abscond or will not repeat the offence. In the result, this application is dismissed. Sd/- K.
