Applicant/accused No.1 submitted that, she was arrested in
Crime No.238/2022 for an offence punishable under section 8(c) r/w
section 21(b) of the NDPS Act, 1985. It is alleged by prosecution that,
on 23.06.2022 applicant/accused was found in suspicious condition and
on her search 7 grams Heroin was seized from her. Therefore, aforesaid
offence was registered against her. She is in MCR. Quantity of Heroin
allegedly seized from her is 7 grams and that from another accused is 6
grams. Its less than commercial quantity. Hence, section 37 of the
NDPS Act is not attracted. She is ready to abide by all conditions those
may be imposed by this Court. She prayed for grant of bail.

Prosecution resisted this application by filing its say
countersigned by Ld. Additional Public Prosecutor Shri. P.J. Tarange on
the grounds mentioned therein. I have heard both sides.
