Representation

  • 2. Learned advocate for the applicant has mainly contended that the applicant is innocent and he has been falsely implicated by the police after snatching cash amount of Rs.5500/- from him; that the applicant is a student and is not involved in any other case of the nature; that only 06 sachets (purries) of Safina Gutka out of 315 sachets allegedly recovered from the applicant were sent to chemical analyzer and whereas remaining 309 sachets shown to have been recovered from the applicant were not sent to expert for examination and report, per learned counsel, 06 sachets (purries) total weighing about 12 grams could easily be foisted upon any person; that the investigation stood completed and the applicant is regularly attending the learned trial Court. Learned A.P.G. after going through the police papers has frankly conceded to the confirmation of interim pre-arrest bail earlier granted to the applicant stating that there was no valid reason for not sending the remaining sachets/purries shown to have been recovered from the applicant to the chemical examiner, although total weight of 315 sachets was 630 grams; and, that 06 sachets sent for expert opinion could not be the representative samples for the remaining sachets, as every sachet was a separate small closed bag, containing small amount of substance. Under these peculiar circumstances of the case, I am of the view that the applicant has made out his case for grant of anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the instant bail application is allowed and ad-interim pre-arrest bail earlier granted to the applicant vide order dated 24.12.2019 is hereby confirmed on the same terms and conditions.
