| Court rejects bail of Punjab based narcotics smuggler | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, May 11: Additional Sessions Judge Kathua Kamlesh Pandit rejected the bail application of one Harjinder Singh r/o Hoshiarpur Punjab from whom Police Post Ramkot recovered narcotics at Dhar Road while driving a vehicle bearing registration number PB35Q 1459. The police on checking the vehicle had recovered 53kgs and 740 gms of Poppy Straw (commercial quantity). While rejecting the bail application, Additional Sessions Judge Kathua Kamlesh Pandit after hearing both the sides observed that the illegal trafficking and trade in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic substances has posed potential threat to the whole society as it is eating the very vitals of the society and the menace of traffickers is spreading its tentacles to every nook and corner of the U.T of Jammu & Kashmir cannot be ignored when the recovery of contraband is on the higher side. The release of the accused person at this stage will definitely have its adverse effect on the trial. The drug traffickers like accused persons are spreading the addiction of Narcotics & Psychotropic substances among the human race especially the youth section of society making them slaves of the same, who when become addicts not only spoil their lives but also ruin the lives of their family members. Therefore, the release of such accused person at this stage will not meet the ends of justice. Consequently in the facts and circumstances of the instant case, the apprehension of the prosecution appears to be reasonable that once the accused person is admitted to bail, he will not debar himself from tampering with evidence, repeating the offence and hindering the further trial in the case also.
