NDPS Act Section 20 | Bail Granted When Commercial Quantity Threshold Is Barely Met + Procedural Irregularities Undermine Prosecution : Allahabad HC
The Allahabad High Court granted bail in an NDPS case where 1.2 kg charas just crossed the commercial quantity limit, emphasizing that procedural failures in recovery and excessive pre-trial detention outweigh the gravity of the offense. This reinforces that mechanical application of quantity thresholds cannot override Article 21 rights when investigative integrity is compromised.
