JAMMU: Justice Tashi Rabstan of J and K High Court Jammu Wing rejected the bail application of Manzoor Ahmad Malik who was facing trial under NDPS case.
According to the police on 21st January, 2014 the -accused was travelling in a vehicle bearing registration No. JK22 4959 from Srinagar to Jammu. During traffic checking, it was alleged that 180 bottles of Lupi-cough and 690 bottles of Sposmo Proxymum were recovered from the bag of petitioner-accused. FIR No.02/2014 came to be registered at Police Station Banihal against the petitioner-accused under Section 8/21 NDPS Act. After completing the investigation, Challan was presented before Principal Sessions Judge, Ramban.
While rejecting the bail application, Justice Tashi Rabstan observed that since the trial of this case is at its infancy, therefore, it would be improper and premature to admit the petitioner-accused to bail at this stage. Accordingly, the bail application is dismissed. However, the petitioner is at liberty to move fresh application for bail as and when any new ground arises. JNF
