    CASE SUMMARY: WPCR 261/2026 – Rohit Das v. State of Chhattisgarh The Chhattisgarh High Court set aside a three-month preventive detention order against Rohit Das under the Prevention of Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1988. Das had two prior NDPS convictions (2022-2023), both fully served, but no criminal cases registered against him thereafter. The court found the detention order arbitrary and unsustainable, noting that merely relying on past convictions without current evidence of ongoing criminal activity violates constitutional protections. The petitioner was ordered released immediately, though denied compensation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
