This application has been filed under Section 483 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraskha Sanhita, 2023, whereby the petitioner namely, Jahedul Hoque Talukdar @ Jahidul Hoque Talukdar, who is stated to have been in custody since 29.06.2026, has prayed for bail in connection with Boko P.S Case No.186/2026 registered under Sections 318(4)/336(3)/340(2) of BNS, 2023. 3. It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the allegation pertains to violation of the provisions of the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, but the petitioner has been booked under the BNS. It is submitted that the petitioner is a licensee of selling drugs and Annexure-D series clearly reveals the petitioner’s licence. It is further submitted that a false allegation has been brought up against the petitioner that he was involved in manufacturing drugs illegally. 4. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor has raised serious objection stating that there are incriminating materials in the case diary against the petitioner. The FIR clearly reveals that the petitioner was involved in manufacturing drugs but he has a licence for the sale of drugs and not for the manufacture of drugs.
