    Case Summary: The Bombay High Court granted bail to Shaikh Faizan Farooq @ Prince in a narcotic drugs case involving alleged possession and distribution of 6.5 grams of Mephedrone. The court found that while allegations against the applicant require trial to be proven, the fact that a similarly-situated co-accused had already been released on bail, combined with six months of detention, warranted bail on furnishing a Rs. 25,000 personal recognizance bond with sureties and standard conditions against evidence tampering and witness intimidation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
