          After rejection of his earlier application vide order, dated 15.09.2021 by the learned Additional Sessions Judge/Special Judge (CNSA)/MCTC, Ubauro, being Crl. Bail application No.1311 of 2021, the applicant/accused Nazeer Ahmed son of Pehlwan Kosh, through instant Crl. Bail application, seeks post-arrest bail in crime No.70/2021, registered at Police Station Adilpur, under Section 9(c) of C.N.S. Act, 1997.

 

2.       As per FIR on 09.08.2021, at 1900 hours, the applicant was arrested by a police party headed by ASI Illahi Bux Hakro on being found in possession of 2200 grams Charas and cash of Rs.800/- near Dargah Iqbal Shah in presence of mashirs, namely, HC Qurban Ali and PC Nazar Muhammad under memo for which he was booked in the instant case. 

 

3.       After hearing the learned Counsel for applicant, learned Deputy Prosecutor General and perusing the material on record, it appears that as per FIR, two big slabs and one small slab were recovered from the applicant which were sealed at the spot for chemical analysis; however, as per the report of chemical examiner, he received two big and one small black brown coloured pieces kept in white plastic shopper. Moreover, the alleged charas was deposited with the office of Chemical Examiner for analysis on 16.08.2021, on seventh day of alleged recovery and nothing is available in record to show as to where the case property was lying during such period. Furthermore, there is no criminal record of applicant/accused, alleged charas was not recovered from the physical possession of the applicant/accused, delaying in sending the charas to chemical examiner has not been well-explained. Under such circumstances, question of involvement of the applicant in alleged offence needs serious consideration in terms of further inquiry as envisaged under Sub-Section (2) of Section 497 Cr.P.C. I, therefore,   admit the applicant/accused to post-bail subject to his furnishing solvent surety in the sum of Rs.100,000/- (Rupees One lac) and PR bond in the like amount to the satisfaction of learned trial Court.

 

4.       Needless to say that the observations made by this Court are tentative in nature and shall not influence the trial Court while deciding the case on merits and in case the applicant misuses the concession of bail, the trial Court shall be at liberty to cancel the same after giving notice to him, in accordance with law.

 

          Application stands disposed of.
