On search, 51.170 kgs of cannabis were recovered from the vehicle bearing Registration No. JH-05-AV-4968. 4. One of the vehicle from which the cannabis was recovered belongs to the petitioner.

It was further submitted that he has voluntarily surrendered before the learned Trial Court. 6.

Considering the fact that commercial quantity of cannabis was recovered from the vehicle of the petitioner, I am not inclined to release the petitioner, on bail. Accordingly, his prayer for bail stands rejected. (Ambuj Nath, J.) Nandini/-
