3. Allegation is of recovery of 31.92 gm brown-sugar like substance as well as other incriminating materials from the house of Pramod Choudhary where petitioner no. 2, namely, Vikash Kumar @ Appu and co-accused Sagar Kumar were also present. All the persons were arrested.

4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are innocent and have been falsely implicated in this case. It is submitted that nothing has been recovered from conscious possession of the petitioner, rather, the said articles were recovered from a house, which belongs to Pramod Choudhary. It is further submitted that the seizure list has been prepared on 30.07.2025 at 17:25 hrs but the registration of F.I.R. was on 30.07.2025 at 18:35 hrs which clearly shows that the petitioner has been falsely dragged in this case due
