2018 (6) TMI 346 - HC - Indian LawsDrugs Trafficking - possession of contraband - Bail Application - Sections 21 and 22 of NDPS Act and Sections 307, 34, 427 of IPC - whether the recovery of contraband effected from the petitioner amounts to commercial quantity or otherwise? - Held that:- Drug peddlers for a small monetary consideration make the youth to use drugs for a small time excitement/kick. The drug peddlers have successfully destroyed the social fabric of our society and led youth to the wrongful path. Such type of persons need to be dealt with firmly and sternly and no sympathy can be shown to them lest that should prove to be counter productive and result in increase drug trafficking. In addition to indulging in drug peddling, the petitioner had tried to run over the police officials performing their duties, who could save their lives with great difficulty. It has to be noticed that as per the prosecution story not only the accused was found in possession of the contraband but girl sitting with him was also in possession of the contraband. There is reasonable apprehension of his absconding and trying to tamper with prosecution evidence, if granted bail. Bail not granted - Petition dismissed.
