State of Uttarakhand” Hon’ble Ashish Naithani, J. Mr. Gaurav Singh, learned counsel for the Applicant. 2. Mr. S.S. Chauhan, learned DAG with Mr. Pramod Tewari, learned AGA with Mr. Vikash Uniyal, learned Brief Holder, for the State of Uttarakhand. 3. In the High Court of Uttarakhand, the present case arises from Bail Application filed under Section 483 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, seeking regular bail for the Applicant – Taukir, who has been accused in FIR/Case Crime No.07 of 2026, under Sections 8/21 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, at Police Station Kotwali Roorkee, District Haridwar. 4. Learned counsel for the Applicant submits that the Applicant has been alleged to be in possession of the contraband, namely, smack (heroin) weighing 6.90 grams, which is more than lesser quantity, and there is no criminal history of the Applicant. He further submits that the Applicant has falsely been roped in the present matter. 5. The bail application has been objected by the learned State Counsel. 6. Considering the fact that quantity of contraband so recovered from the possession of the Applicant is just 1.90 grams more than the lesser quantity i.e. 5 grams, and considering the other factors involved i.e. the packaging and scope of measurement irregularities, the grounds for bail are considered to be sufficient at this juncture. 7. Considering the overall facts and circumstances of the case, the Applicant has made out a case for bail. 8. Accordingly, bail application is allowed. It is directed that the Applicant - Taukir, who has been accused in FIR/Case Crime No.07 of 2026, under Sections 8/21 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, at Police Station Kotwali Roorkee, District Haridwar, be released on bail on furnishing a personal bond with two reliable sureties each in the like amount to the satisfaction of the concerned court.
