Summary

The State sought cancellation of anticipatory bail granted to the respondent in an NDPS case involving an international marijuana trafficking chain, where a raid on his house yielded 19.2 kg marijuana, 3.2 kg hashish, and Rs 17.5 lakh cash, with links to Thailand-based suppliers and the Cyniq app for encrypted communication. The Court held the trial court's grant of anticipatory bail was perverse as it failed to record satisfaction on the twin conditions under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, treated incomplete defence material as exculpatory, and effectively reversed the statutory presumption against bail in commercial quantity cases. The anticipatory bail was set aside.
