Opposite Party ------ CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY ------ For the Petitioners : Mr. Abhay Kr. Chaturvedy, Advocate For the State : Mr. Sunil Kumar Dubey, Addl.P.P. ------ Order No.02 Dated-22-01-2025 Heard the parties. Apprehending their arrest in connection with Lawalong P.S. Case No.05 of 2023 corresponding to N.D.P.S. Case No.77 of 2023 instituted under Sections 18/27(a)/28/29/30 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances act and Section 33 of Indian Forest Act, the petitioners have moved this Court for grant of privileges of anticipatory bail. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submits that the allegation against the petitioners is that the petitioners were involved in cultivation of poppy crop. It is submitted that the allegation against the petitioners is false. It is next submitted that the petitioners have been implicated in this case only on the basis of information furnished by the spy but the name of the spy has not been disclosed anywhere. It is also submitted that the petitioners are in no way involved in cultivation of puppy crop. It is further submitted that the petitioners undertake to co-operate with the investigation of the case and to furnish sufficient security including cash security. Hence, it is submitted that the petitioners be given the privileges of anticipatory bail. Learned Addl.P.P. appearing for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners. Considering the submissions of learned counsels and the facts and circumstances stated above, I am inclined to grant privileges of anticipatory bail to the petitioners. Accordingly, the petitioners are directed to surrender in the Court below within six weeks from today and in the event of their arrest or surrendering, they will be enlarged on bail on depositing Rs.10,000/- each as cash security and on furnishing bail bond of Rs.25,000/- (Twenty five thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Sessions Judge, Chatra in connection with Lawalong P.S. Case No.05 of 2023 corresponding to N.D.P.S. Case No.77 of 2023 with the condition that he will co-operate with the investigation of the case and appear before the investigating officer as and when noticed by him and furnish his mobile number and photocopy of the Aadhar Card with an undertaking that he will not change his mobile number during the pendency of the case and further conditions as laid down under Section 482 (2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023.
