JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr.N.S. Dandiwal, Advocate for the petitioner .. RAJAN GUPTA, J.: (Oral) This is a petition under Section 438 Cr.P.C. praying for pre-arrest bail in a case registered against the petitioner vide FIR No.52 dated 27.5.2010 under Sections 15, 61, 85 NDPS Act at Police Station Nihal Singh Wala. The allegation against the petitioner is that 20 bags of poppy husk were recovered from the tubewell owned by him on a raid being conducted by the police. As a result, the instant case under Sections 15, 61, 85 of the NDPS Act was registered. Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that petitioner has been falsely implicated in the case, as he was not present on the spot at the time of alleged occurrence. He has urged that petitioner was attending funeral of his real aunt and thus, probability of his having committed the offence is highly doubtful. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner. Crl.Misc.No.M-17554 of 2010 - 2 - It is evident that allegation against the petitioner is that a plastic bag containing 20 bags of poppy husk, which is commercial quantity, were recovered from the tubewell of the petitioner. The investigating agency may require his custodial interrogation for the purpose of taking the investigation to its logical end. No case for grant of anticipatory bail is made out. Dismissed in limine. June 29, 2010 ( RAJAN GUPTA ) pc JUDGE 2
