NDPS: Confiscation: Sections 36-C and 51 NDPS do not deny the use of sections 451 (s.497 BNSS) and 457 (503 BNSS) and section 60 does not deny interim custody to bona fide owner
Bail order set aside: Twin conditions laid down under section 37 NDPS Act should be considered in commercial quantity cases
Acquittal: NDPS: Search before the police is not the third option and the prosecution’s claim of using electronic weighing scale is also questionable
NDPS: Humanitarian considerations cannot override the statutory minimum punishment mandated by the legislature hence sentence is not reduced
Remember me
