[2026:JHHC:10247] IN THE HIGH COURT OF JHARKHAND AT RANCHI B.A. no. 2879 of 2026 Himanshu kumar @ Manish, aged about 24 yrs., son of Umesh singh, resident of village-Amari, PO- & PS. -Uphara District-Aurangabad, State –Bihar. … Petitioner Versus The State of Jharkhand … Opp. party Coram: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR CHOUDHARY For the Petitioner : Mr. Nilendu Kumar, Adv. For the State : Mr. Bhola Nath Ojha, Spl. PP 02 / 09.04.2026 Heard the parties. The petitioner has been made accused in connection with Chandwa P.S-case-no, 115/2025, corresponding to NDPS Case no-26/2025 instituted under section 20(b)(ii)(B), 25,29,30, of the N.D.P.S Act 1985. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that this is the second journey of the petitioner with the prayer for regular bail as his earlier bail application was rejected vide order dated 26.09.2025 passed in B.A. No. 8699 of 2025. It is next submitted that Special Leave Petition (Crl.) no. 18017 of 2025 filed against the said order of rejection of bail application of the petitioner, has also been dismissed by the Hon’ble Supreme court of India. It is next submitted that the only fresh ground for admitting the petitioner on regular bail is that the petitioner has been custody for some more period and charge has also been framed but no witness has been examined. It is next submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner is ready and willing to co- operate with the trial of the case hence, the petitioner be admitted to regular bail. Learned Spl. P.P. appearing for the State vehemently opposes the prayer for bail. Considering the fact that the bail of the petitioner has already been rejected on merit by the co-ordinate Bench of this Court as well as the said Special Leave Petition has also been dismissed by the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, this court is of the considered view that in the absence of any material to be satisfied that there is any reasonable ground to believe that the petitioner has not committed any offence or he is not likely to commit any offence while on bail as the offence involved in this case is regarding transportation of 30 Kg. of Ganja, which comes under commercial quantity, hence, this court is of the considered view that there is no justifiable reason to release the petitioner on bail at this stage. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the above-named petitioner is again rejected for the same reasons as mentioned in the order dated 26.09.2025 passed in B.A. No. 8699 of 2025.
