JUDGMENT

G.S. ahluwalia, J. - This first application under Section 439 of Cr.P.C. has been filed for grant of bail.

The applicant has been arrested on 30.10.2021 in connection with Crime No.798/2021 registered at Police Station Kotwali Guna, District Guna for offence under Sections 8/20, 29 of NDPS act.

It is submitted by the counsel for the applicant that according to the prosecution case, 21 Kgs. of Ganja was seized from the truck of the applicant. It is submitted that in fact, three persons had taken lift from the applicant and they were carrying 21 Kgs. of Ganja. The applicant is not involved in commission of offence. However, in view of the allegations that those three persons had already informed the applicant about the fact that they are carrying Ganja and in view that that he is ready and willing to abide by any stringent condition which may be imposed by the Court including that of furnishing cash surety. Further, in the wake of ongoing Covid-19 pandemic he is ready and willing to contribute in monetary form for fighting against Covid-19 pandemic. The trial is likely to take sufficiently long time and there is no possibility of his absconding or tampering with the prosecution
