    Summary: The Bombay High Court dismissed Vinod Pratapsingh Girase's bail application in an NDPS Act case involving 537.60 kg of Codeine Phosphate and Triprolidine Hydrochloride syrup. The court found prima facie evidence of the applicant's conscious possession and involvement in trafficking, including witness statements identifying him at courier offices and recovery of a co-accused's forged Aadhar card from him. Although the applicant argued procedural non-compliance under Sections 42 and 52A of the NDPS Act, the court held that such procedural irregularities do not vitiate seizure or grant bail under Section 37's stringent conditions, and no core mandatory provision violation was demonstrated. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
