The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending inter alia that just two months prior to the present detection, the petitioner had been found in possession of 200 gms of ganja which is the subject matter of another crime. 3. Having regard to the fact that this particular narcotic drug has ruined several families and has created several addicts pushing them into a condemned world of no return, I am not inclined grant bail to the petitioner. This petition is accordingly dismissed. Sd/V. RAMKUMAR, (JUDGE) /true copy/ P.A. to Judge. ani.
