RESPONDENT (s) CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mr. Prateek Pandit, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. K.D.Sachdeva, Addl.A.G., Punjab. ***** RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) This is an application for regular bail filed under Section 439 of Code of Criminal Procedure in FIR No.84 dated 18.08.2010, under Section 15 of Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985 registered at Police Station Kotwali, District Kapurthala. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and gone through the record. It has been contended by the learned counsel for the petitioner that only 8 Kg. 250 gms. of poppy husk was allegedly recovered from the CRM No.M-27475 of 2010 possession of the petitioner. Further contends that he has been continuing in custody since 18.08.2010 i.e. the date of arrest. Further contends that he is not involved in any other case and that earlier cases pending against him under Excise Act have also since been disposed of. It is also contended that he is not involved in any other case under the NDPS Act and he is also not a previous convict. All these facts have not been disputed by learned counsel for the State. There are no allegations on behalf of the State that petitioner is likely to abscond or that he is likely to dissuade the witnesses from deposing true facts in the Court, if released on bail. Hence, keeping in view these facts and without expressing any opinion on merits, the instant application for regular bail filed on behalf of Amrik Singh is allowed. Bail to the satisfaction of CJM/Duty Magistrate, Kapurthala. ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) October 28, 2010. JUDGE 'om' 2
