This anticipatory bail application under Section 482 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, has been preferred by the petitioner apprehending his arrest for offences registered under Sections 20(b)(ii)(A)/15/18/19B of the NDPS Act. 3. Learned A.P.P. representing the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail. 4. Truck is a commercial vehicle and it was transporting coal. The petitioner is the owner of the truck. From the driver’s cabin 510 grams of opium and 2.30 kg of doda were recovered. Prima-facie, considering the quantity of the material and since it was found from the cabin of the driver, I am of the opinion that it was being done without the consent of the owner of the vehicle, thus this Court finds it a fit case for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. 5. Accordingly, this Anticipatory Bail Application stands 2025:JHHC:13383 2 allowed. The petitioner, above named, is directed to surrender before the learned court below within four weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this order and on the event of his surrender or arrest, he shall be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Sessions Judge, Hazaribag, in connection with Sadar (Bara Bazar OP) P.S.
