COPY OF JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS

The court dismissed Vinay Malhotra's interim bail application in this NDPS case. Malhotra was arrested after 3,360 Tramadol capsules and 84 Codeine syrup were recovered from his pharmacy on 22.09.2025, constituting commercial quantity and attracting a bar under Section 37 of the NDPS Act. Although the accused claimed his family required his care—his son having a wind-swept deformity and wife having cardiac ailment—the court found medical verification showed the wife's condition was stable and the son had discontinued treatment since 2022 with no immediate urgency, rejecting the hardship plea given the serious nature of allegations and ongoing investigation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
