Section 37 NDPS Act | 72-Hour FSL Sample Dispatch Mandate Breach Renders Bail Eligible : Rajasthan HC
Rajasthan High Court grants bail under Section 483 BNSS (439 CrPC) in an NDPS case, holding that a three-month delay in dispatching forensic samples violates Standing Order No.1/1988, undermining evidentiary reliability. The ruling reinforces that procedural lapses, even in serious offences, can tilt the balance in favour of personal liberty where substantive evidence is lacking.
