IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.10218 of 2010 MD.MANSOOR, S/o Late Md. Gulam Rasool. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ANR. ----------- 03. 01.04.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, State and the Union of India. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offences under Sections 20 and 22 of the N.D.P.S. Act. The prosecution case is that on wireless information the police intercepted Scorpio Jeep on which “Bharat Sarkar, Vitta Mantralaya, Adhishak Sima Shulk, Barauni” was written. After searching the same a beacon light was found inside as also 35 Kgs Ganja suggesting that the said Scorpio Jeep in the garb of being a government vehicle was being used for illegal purposes. The petitioner is said to be the driver of the Scorpio Jeep and the submission is that the car, even though private, was being used by Customs Department for conducting search. This contention is refuted by the Counsel for Union of India. In view of such, I am not inclined to grant bail - 2 - to the petitioner. The prayer for bail is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude it positively within nine months in view of the seriousness of the nature of the offence. Vikash/- (Anjana Prakash, J.)
