The instant third bail application has been filed by the petitioner under Section 439 Cr.P.C. seeking regular bail in connection with the FIR No. 604/2022 registered at Police Station Hanumangarh Junction, District Hanumangarh for the offences punishable under Sections 8/15 of Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985.

¶13

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the recovered contraband is below commercial quantity. The accused petitioner is behind the bars since 8.9.2022 and the trial of the case will take sufficient long time to be concluded. Therefore, the benefit of bail should be granted to the accused-petitioner.

¶14

Learned Public Prosecutor has vehemently opposed the bail application.
