October 26, 2024

Bail application dismissed in a case involving seizure of commercial quantity of contraband. Key issues: improper sampling procedure found acceptable; delay in filing Section 52A application not prejudicial at this stage; defective notice u/s 50 NDPS Act noted but not determinative; delay in trial not prolonged enough to warrant bail. Considering the large quantity seized, stringent conditions of Section 37 NDPS Act not met for bail. Trial to proceed expeditiously, applicant can reapply if further delays occur.
