IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.34500 of 2008 NARAYAN SAHNI Versus THE UNION OF INDIA ----------- 2/ 19.8.2008 Heard learned counsel for the parties. Earlier the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected considering the fact that the recovery from him was commercial quantity of ganja. Submission is that there is no progress in the case and the petitioner is in jail custody since 15.3.2005. The provision of grant of bail to an accused who is involved in offence relating to recovery of commercial quantity is prescribed under Section 37 of the N.D.P.S.Act and the accused is entitled to be released only if the court is satisfied that there are reasonable grounds for believing that he is not guilty of such offence and that he is not likely to commit any offence while on bail. There is nothing on record from which these interferences can be drawn. Considering the legal position and the quantity of recovery, I am not inclined to reconsider the prayer for bail of the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is again rejected.
