    Case Summary The Bombay High Court rejected bail for Imran Ahmed Mohammed, arrested for cocaine trafficking under the NDPS Act, 1985. The applicant argued he was not produced before a magistrate within 24 hours of arrest; however, the court held that under NDPS Act Section 52, the 24-hour period commences only after production before the empowered officer under Section 53, not from initial detention at the airport. The court further declined bail under Section 37's strict embargo on NDPS cases, finding no reasonable belief that the applicant was innocent or would not reoffend.
