Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the records. 5. In the present case, an FIR was lodged on 07.09.2025, Sections 8, 20 and 60 of NDPS Act.

As per the prosecution story, when Head Constable of Anti Narcotics Task Force stopped the applicant and was asking some question, then the applicant threw keys of the car in the nearby field, which could not be recovered even after lot of search. The prosecution could not obtain a duplicate key of the car also, as it was told by the applicant that the car belongs to one of his friends namely Deepak. The driver side window of the car was broken by the Police team and thereafter two sacks weighing 25.900 Kgs of ganja in total was recovered. 6. It is the case of the applicant that there is no evidence to show that he has driven the car and parked it in front of the house of the sister; that neither he was arrested while driving the car, nor he has any connection with the car. Even as per the prosecution story, there is no evidence on material to show, which may relate the applicant with the car in question or the alleged seized contraband and that the applicant is in custody since 07.09.2025. 7. On the last occasion, State was directed to seek instructions in the matter. Today, on instructions, learned A.G.A. fairly submitted that the car is registered in the name of one Deepak, who was in judicial custody at that relevant point of time and there is no documentary evidence to relate the seized car with the applicant. 8. Having considered the submissions, under the facts and circumstances of the case and also considering the fact that neither the applicant was arrested while driving the car, nor he has any connection with the car and there is no evidence on material to show, which may relate the applicant with the car in question or the alleged seized contraband and as such, the car is registered in the name of one Deepak, who was in judicial custody at that relevant point of time, this Court is of the view that it is a case fit for bail and the applicant deserves to be enlarged on bail. 9.
