Apprehending their arrest, the petitioners have moved this Court for grant of privilege of anticipatory bail in connection with Kandra P.S. Case No. 08 of 2023 registered under Sections 18 (b) of the NDPS, Act. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the allegation against the petitioners is that the petitioners are involved in cultivation of poppy. It is then submitted that the allegations against the petitioners are all false and the petitioners have been implicated in this case only on the basis of anonymous information as the police has not even disclosed the name of the person, who alleged that the petitioners have been involved in cultivation of poppy. It is further submitted by learned counsel for the petitioners that the petitioners have no criminal antecedent, as mentioned in paragraph 8 of the anticipatory bail application. It is next submitted that the petitioners are ready to co-operate with the investigation of the case and also undertakes to furnish sufficient security including cash security hence, the petitioners be given the privilege of anticipatory bail.

Hence, in the event of arrest by the police or surrender within a period of six weeks from the date of this order, the petitioners shall be released on bail on depositing Rs. 10,000/- each as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand) each with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Sessions Judge, Seraikella in connection with Kandra P.S.
