JAMMU, June 30: Special Judge NDPS Jammu Yash Pal Sharma has rejected the bail application of one Gurjit Singh, who was allegedly involved in recovery of 50 kilograms of heroin worth Rs 250 crore.
It is worthwhile to mention here that in the month of May, the court had rejected the bail application of Ravinder Singh, alleged narco kingpin.
After hearing Advocate Anmol Sharma for the applicant whereas Special PP Ajay Singh Manhas for the NCB, the court observed, “the case against the petitioner is of a serious nature. The serious NDPS offences alleged against petitioner are against the society at large”.
“The drug menace is rising at an alarming rate spoiling young children of the nation badly eating like a termite and these factors also make the petitioner disentitle to bail apart from rigor of Section 37 of the NDPS Act which is applicable to his case”, the court said.
“The petitioner does not deserve judicial discretion of bail. As such application being devoid of merits is rejected”, read the order.
