DEEPAK KUMAR BHARDWAJ 2020.11.24 10:31 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document As per the case of the prosecution, the petitioner

Criminal Misc. No. M- 37620 of 2020 was found in conscious possession of 110 Kg of poppy husk and 10 Kg of intoxicant powder. The petitioner was the only occupant of the car.

No doubt, the petitioner has been acquitted in four criminal cases, however, two more cases under the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, are still pending. The recovery from the petitioner is of commercial quantity.

Hence, no ground to grant regular bail to the petitioner is made out.

Accordingly, the present petition is dismissed". In view of the above, no fresh ground is made out to grant regular bail to the petitioner. Hence, the present petition is dismissed. (Anil Kshetarpal) Judge November 19, 2020 "DK"
