IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.121 of 2011 ABHIMANYU KUMAR GUPTA @ ABHIMANYU KUMR PANDEY Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 09.02.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned counsel appearing for the State. The petitioner seeks bail in connection with Raxaul P.S. Case No. 04 of 2010 arising out of NDPS Case No. 50 of 2010 registered under sections-20, 22 & 23 of the NDPS Act. Allegedly, 125 kg Ganja was recovered from the dicky of a vehicle which was being driven by the petitioner at the relevant time. Although the Learned counsel for the petitioner tried to convince me about the innocence of the petitioner placing this argument that the petitioner was not aware about the aforesaid Ganja and furthermore, the mandatory provisions of the NDPS Act have not been complied with but I am not at all convinced to the aforesaid submissions. Therefore, considering the quantity of recovery as well as the role played by the petitioner in the alleged crime, I am not inclined to release him on bail. Accordingly, his prayer for bail stands rejected. However, learned Sessions Judge-cum- Special Judge, West Champaran, Bettiah should expedite the trial of the petitioner and conclude the trial of the petitioner as soon as possible.
