Crl. Misc. No.M-8101 of 2011 (O&M) Dara Singh Vs. State of Punjab Present : Ms. Satwant Mehta, Advocate for Mr. D.S. Pheruman, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Rajinder Mathur, A.A.G., Punjab. ******* This petition has been filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail to the petitioner in case F.I.R. No.104 dated 13.09.2010 registered under Sections 15, 61, 85 of the NDPS Act at Police Station Bhikhiwind, District Tarn Taran, Punjab. Reply filed on behalf of Dilbagh Singh, PPS, Deputy Superintendent of Police, Sub Division, Valtoha Camp at Bhikhiwind, District Tarn Taran is taken on record. As per the reply the total recovery from the petitioner was 50 kgs and 500 gm of Poppy husk. Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that the said recovery is of non-commercial quantity and that the petitioner has now been in custody since 30.09.2010 and there is no likelihood that the trial is concluded in the near future. As per the reply, even though charge has been framed yet no prosecution evidence has been led. In the circumstances, without going into the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to release the petitioner on regular bail to the satisfaction of the trial Court. Ordered accordingly. Petition stands disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) July 18, 2011 JUDGE ashish
