Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the cancellation of bail under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985, specifically referencing Section 37 which imposes restrictions on granting bail in cases involving serious offenses related to narcotics. The Court held that the cancellation of bail was justified based on the positive report from the Central Revenue Control Laboratory indicating the presence of heroin, thus establishing a serious charge against the appellant. The Court emphasized that the prosecution has the right to send samples for examination, and the nature of the charges warranted the cancellation of bail.
