Heard learned counsel for applicant, the learned AGA for the State and perused the record.
Applicant- Bramha Singh seeks bail in Case Crime No.1696 of 2018, under Section 22 of N.D.P.S. Act, P.S. Kotwali Nagar, District- Bulandshahr.
Learned counsel for the applicant has submitted that applicant is wholly innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case due to ulterior motive. Learned counsel for the applicant has next submitted that even according to prosecution own case, 76.95 gms. of Alprazolam is said to have been recovered from the possession of the applicant, which is below the commercial quantity. Learned counsel for the applicant has next submitted that necessary compliance of provisions of search and seizure under the N.D.P.S. Act has also not been strictly adhered to. Lastly, it is submitted that applicant is in jail since 15.12.2018 and in case he is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail and will cooperate in the trial by all means. The applicant has no criminal history to his credit.
Per contra, learned AGA has opposed the prayer for bail, but could not dispute the aforesaid facts and the fact that the applicant is in jail since 15.12.2018.
Keeping in view the nature of the offence, evidence, complicity of the accused, severity of punishment, submissions of the learned counsel for the parties and without expressing any opinion on merits of the case, I am of the view that the applicant has made out a case for bail.
