22/04/2021
Jammu, Apr 21: Additional Sessions Judge Kathua Kamlesh Pandit rejected the bail application of one Parvez Mushraf Ali from whose possession 250 grams charas was recovered by the police station Billawar.
While rejecting the bail application, Addit-ional Sessions Judge Kathua Kamlesh Pandit observed that law is very settled that in case of any serious offence courts have to see the gravity of the offence, punishment prescribed, impact on the society, evidence on record and apprehension of tampering with the evidence influencing the witnesses etc. This court is conscious about the precious right to liberty of the accused person, but at the same time the action of the accused person is also to be taken into consideration while balancing between individual interest and the public interest. The illegal trafficking & trade in Narco-tic Drugs & Psychotropic substances has posed potential threat to the whole society as it is eating the very vitals of the society and the menace of traffickers is spreading its tentacles to every nook and corner of the U.T of Jammu & Kashmir cannot be ignored when the recovery of contraband is on the higher side. The release of accused person at this stage will definitely have its adverse affect on the trial. The drug traffickers like accused person are spreading the addiction of Narcotics & Psychotrpic substances among the human race especially youth section of society making them slaves of the same, who when become addicts not only spoil their lives but also ruin the lives of their family members.
Therefore, the release of such accused person at this stage will not meet the ends of justice. Conse-quently in the facts and circumstances of the instant case, the apprehension of the prosecution appears to be reasonable that once the accused person is admitted to bail, he will not debar himself from tampering with evidence, repeating the offen-ce & hindering the further trial in the case also.
