For the Petitioner: Mr. Dilip Kr. Prasad, Advocate
For the O.P-State: Mr. Manoj Kr. Mishra, A.P.P.
--- 03 / 06.08.2025 Heard the parties.
2. Petitioner has been made accused in connection with Angara P.S. Case No. 10 of 2025 for the offences registered under section 18(C) of the N.D.P.S. Act, pending in the court of learned Special Judge (NDPS), Ranchi.
3. On 14.01.2025, Angara Police on the basis of confidential information, destroyed the poppy cultivation from the field in village Kontatoli. Initially, it was alleged that the land on which poppy was being cultivated, belongs to the petitioner.
4. Mr. Dilip Kumar Prasad, learned counsel for the petitioner, has drawn attention of this court towards para-43 of the case diary, from which it appears that the police are yet to ascertain the identity of the owner of the land in which poppy was cultivated.
5. In view of the aforesaid facts, I am inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the petitioner, above named, is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 20,000/- (Rupees twenty thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each, to the satisfaction of learned Special Judge (NDPS), Ranchi in connection with Angara P.S. Case No. 10 of 2025.
