Order
11/12/2025 Instant bail applications under Section 483 of BNSS (439 Cr.P.C.) have been filed by the petitioners who have been arrested in the present matter. The requisite details of the matter are tabulated herein below:
S. No. Particulars of the case
1. FIR Number 214/2025
2. Police Station Ghamudwali
3. District Sriganganagar
4. Offences alleged in the Under Sections 8/15 NDPS Act.
FIR
5. Offences added, if any -
Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have been falsely implicated in the present case. Learned counsel further submits that, as per the NDPS Act, the commercial quantity of the narcotic contraband, viz. Poppy husk is 50 kg; however, the allegedly recovered narcotic contraband, viz.
poppy husk is below the commercial quantity, i.e., 21 kg 700 gm.
Learned counsel also submits that there are no previous antecedents against the petitioners, and they are in custody since 01.12.2025. As the trial of the case is likely to take significant time, the benefit of bail may be granted to the accused-
petitioners.
Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the bail application, however, he is not in a position to dispute that the contraband recovered is below the commercial quantity.
Having heard and considered the rival submissions, facts and circumstances of the case as well as perused the material available on record; considering the fact that the narcotic contraband recovered in this case is below commercial quantity and the petitioners are in custody since 01.12.2025 and trial of the case will take significant time to complete, without expressing any opinion on merits/demerits of the case, this Court is inclined to enlarge the petitioners on bail.
Consequently, the bail application under Section 483 of BNSS (439 Cr.P.C.) is allowed. It is ordered that the accused-petitioners as named in the cause title, arrested in connection with the above mentioned FIR, shall be released on bail, if not wanted in any other case, provided each of them furnish a personal bond of Rs.1,00,000/- and two sureties of Rs.50,000/- each, to the satisfaction of learned trial court, for their appearance before that court on each & every date of hearing and whenever called upon to do so till completion of the trial.
