HC denied bail under Section 439 CrPC for NDPS Act charges. Applicant was apprehended attempting to collect parcels containing psychotropic substances based on Interpol intelligence. Court found prima facie evidence of conscious possession, noting the Applicant's suspicious behavior including face concealment, using false identities, and attempted flight upon detecting CBI presence. Despite claiming lack of knowledge about parcel contents, Applicant's actions demonstrated awareness and control. Court determined twin conditions under Section 37 NDPS Act were not satisfied due to gravity of allegations and evidence suggesting involvement in international drug trafficking network. Given reasonable grounds to believe guilt and likelihood of reoffending, bail application was dismissed.
