IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.40858 of 2008 ARJUN SAHNI Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 22.9.2008 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner is in custody on the allegation of recovery of one pound of heroin double tiger brand made in Thailand. 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 Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act. Under the said Act an 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 inferences could be drawn. Considering the legal position and the quantity of recovery, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected. Tahir/- ( Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
