2017 (4) TMI 138 - KARNATAKA HIGH COURTAnticipatory bail - 13.800 kgs of ketamine found from petitioner's manufacturing premises - Held that: - it is for the prosecution to establish beyond reasonable doubt during the course of evidence that petitioner was manufacturing ketamine or was having possession of the same for the purpose of exporting or selling the same. The name of the petitioner is not arrayed as accused person. Since the respondent has taken steps by issuing notice to the petitioner calling upon him to appear before them, the apprehension of his arrest at the hands of the respondent is well founded - Since the alleged offence u/s 22 of the NDPS Act is not exclusively punishable with death or imprisonment for life and as Accused No. 2 has been already granted bail by this Court, petitioner can be admitted to anticipatory bail by imposing reasonable conditions - petition allowed - decided in favor of petitioner.
