HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION No. - 17644 of 2025 Court No. - 67 HON'BLE KRISHAN PAHAL, J. 1. List has been revised. 2. Heard Sri Rizwan Ullah Siddiqui, learned counsel for the applicant, Sri Surendra Narayan Mishra, learned counsel for the informant, Sri Ashutosh Srivastava, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the material placed on record. 3. Applicant seeks bail in Case Crime No. 123 of 2025, under Section 8/20 of The Narcotic Drugs And Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, Police Station- Kutubsher, District Saharanpur, during the pendency of trial. 4. Learned counsel for the applicant has argued that the applicant is absolutely innocent and has been falsely implicated in the present case with a view to cause unnecessary harassment and to victimize him. The contraband recovered from the possession of the applicant is below the commercial quantity i.e. 500 grams of Charas. The allegations are per se false. There is no compliance of mandatory provision of Section 52-A of the N.D.P.S. Act. 5. Learned counsel for the applicant has further stated that there is no chemical analyst's report to corroborate the fact that the said contraband was Charas. The criminal history of seven cases assigned to the applicant stands explained. The applicant is languishing in jail since 02.05.2025. In case, the applicant is released on bail, he will not misuse the liberty of bail. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Rizwan Ullah Siddiqui, Surendra Narayan Mishra Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A. Nadeem @ Raghu .....Applicant(s) State of U.P. .....Opposite Party(s) 6. Learned A.G.A. has vehemently opposed the bail application. 7. Upon hearing learned counsel for the parties, perusal of record and considering the complicity of accused, severity of punishment as well as totality of facts and circumstances, at this stage without commenting on the merits of the case, I find it a fit case for bail. The bail application is allowed. 8. Let the applicant- Nadeem @ Raghu, who is involved in aforementioned case be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond and two sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the court concerned subject to following conditions.

In case of breach of any of the above conditions, it shall be a ground for cancellation of bail. 10. It is made clear that observations made in granting bail to the applicant shall not in any way affect the learned trial Judge in forming his independent opinion based on the testimony of the witnesses.
