Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal of Sanjay Kumar Kedia against the dismissal of multiple bail applications under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, specifically Sections 24 and 29. The Court held that the appellant's companies, as intermediaries, could potentially be protected under Section 79 of the Information Technology Act, 2000, but emphasized that the investigation into the alleged supply of psychotropic substances was ongoing. The Court ultimately granted bail, finding that the prima facie case against the appellant was not sufficiently substantiated at this stage.
