Cr. Misc. No.M-14611 of 2017 [2] have gone through the record.

Learned counsel for the petitioner stated that as per the FIR no specimens have been separated from the case property by the Investigating Officer. I have gone through Police file. As per challan as well as the record of the Police file, the samples have been got separated by the Police authorities from the Court of Illaqa Magistrate. The recovery from the present petitioner is 65 Kgs. poppy husk which falls in commercial quantity and Section 37 of the NDPS Act bars bail in the case of commercial quantity.

Therefore, I do not find merit in this petition and the same is dismissed.
