It has been argued by the learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case. It is submitted that no such seizure of contraband article has been made from the possession of the applicant. The applicant is in jail since 09.08.2026. The conclusion of the trial is likely to take some time, therefore, he prays for grant of bail. 4. On the other hand, the learned counsel for the State opposes the bail application and submits that a total of 236.66 Kgs of Ganja has been seized from the possession of the co-accused, which is above the commercial quantity and the name of the applicant has come into light from the memorandum statement of the co-accused. Hence, this bail application is liable to be rejected. 5. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material available on record. 6. Taking into consideration the fact that the quantity of contraband article seized from the possession of the co-accused i.e. a total of 236.66 Kgs of Ganja, is much above the commercial quantity and the name of the applicant has come into light from the memorandum statement of the co-accused, and the applicant is failed to give any explanation for the same and it could not be a case of false implication, hence, this Court is of the view that it is not a fit case is enlarge the applicant on bail. 7. Accordingly, the bail application of applicant – Mohammad Aadil, involved in Crime No.186/2026, registered at Police Station – Bagicha, District – Jashpur (C.G.) for the offences punishable under Section 20(B) and 29 of the NDPS Act, is rejected at this stage. 3 8. Needless to say that the learned trial Court concerned is at liberty to proceed with the trial and conclude the same, expeditiously. 9. The Office is directed to provide a certified copy of this order to the trial Court for necessary information and compliance forthwith. Sd/- (Ramesh Sinha) Chief Justice Rajshekhar
