For the Petitioner : Mr. A.K. Kashyap, Sr. Advocate
For the Opposite Party : Mr. Sardhu Mahto, A.P.P.
--- 2/29.05.2026 Heard Mr. A.K. Kashyap, learned senior counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.
The petitioner is an accused in connection with Daltonganj Town P.S. Case No. 494 of 2025.
The petitioner was apprehended by the police and from his bag 6.523 Kg of opium was recovered. Though, it has been submitted by learned senior counsel for the petitioner that petitioner was the driver of the vehicle and he is in custody since 20.11.2025, but regard being had to the fact that commercial quantity of opium was recovered, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, this application is hereby rejected at this stage.
