The allegation against the petitioner is that, the petitioner is seen in suspicious circumstances and recovered from him 32 Ampules (2 ml. each). 4. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and also the learned Public Prosecutor. 5. The petitioner is arrested only on 16.3.2010. The investigation in this case is in progress. Considering the nature of the offences involved in the case, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage, especially since the release of the petitioner at this stage is likely to affect the investigation adversely and there is no B.A.No. 2097 of 2010 -:2:- guarantee that he would not influence the witnesses and interfere with the investigation. In the result, there is no merit in the petition for bail and accordingly, the same is dismissed. V.K.MOHANAN, JUDGE ami/
