NDPS Act | Bail Granted Due to Non-Compliance with Sampling Rules Under Rules 9-11 & Section 52-A : Allahabad HC

Allahabad HC rules that procedural violations in drug sampling-including failure to comply with Rules 9-11 and Section 52-A of the NDPS Act-undermine prosecution's case, justifying bail even for commercial quantities. The court emphasized that fairness in evidence collection is non-negotiable, setting a precedent for strict adherence to procedural safeguards in drug offences.
