¶10

Learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody for eight months and he has been implicated in the present case only on the basis of statement of a co-accused.

¶11

The subject-matter of the present case relates to alleged recovery of 606 gm of brown sugar.

¶12

Learned advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits that further investigation is in progress; there are criminal antecedents of the present petitioner as also the Call Data Records connecting the present petitioner with the principal accused.

¶13

The petitioner is in custody for eight months and there has been no recovery from the present petitioner except the Call Date Records. Further, no materials appeared against the present petitioner.

¶14

¶15

Having regard to the period of detention and the fact that there is no possibility of the trial being concluded in the near future as the prosecution has relied upon eight witnesses and the petitioner is in custody for eight months, I am of the view that further detention of the present petitioner is unwarranted.

¶16

Hence, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is

¶17

Allowed.
