Whether Reporters of Local Newspapers may be allowed to see the judgment ?

2.

To be referred to the Reporters or not ?

3.

Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest ? AJAY TEWARI, J (ORAL) Prayer is for grant of regular bail in case FIR No.31 dated 17.5.2015 under Section 22 of the NDPS Act at P.S Jhunir, District Mansa. Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that the alleged recovery is of non-commercial quantity and that the petitioner has now been in custody for about seven months.

Learned State counsel, on instructions from ASI Sukhchain Singh, has also accepted the aforesaid assertions. Without commenting upon the merits of the case, and keeping in view the period of custody already suffered by the petitioner as well as the fact that the trial is not going to conclude in near future, I do not deem it appropriate to deny the concession of regular bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petitioner is admitted to bail to the satisfaction

CRM-M- 40878 of 2015 (O&M) #2# of the Chief Judicial Magistrate/Duty Magistrate, Mansa. Petition stands disposed of.
