NDPS Act Section 20 | Bail Granted When Contraband Recovered Only from Co-Accused, Not Petitioner, and Co-Accused Already Enlarged : Rajasthan HC
The Rajasthan High Court granted bail to an accused under the NDPS Act where the contraband was recovered solely from co-accused, not the petitioner, and those co-accused had already been released on bail. This reinforces that mere association without possession or control over contraband cannot sustain denial of bail under Section 20, especially when the trial is prolonged and no independent evidence ties the petitioner to the offence.
