Ajay soni vs State of Uttar Pradesh — 250/2026

Summary: The Special Sessions Court (NDPS Act) in Bhadohi rejected the bail petition of Ajay Soni, accused under Sections 8/20 of the NDPS Act and Sections 318(4), 319(2) of the BNS. The court found prima facie evidence that the accused facilitated the transportation of commercial quantity cannabis (1 quintal 880 grams) by co-accused through phone instructions, as evidenced by call details, despite the accused's contention that he was falsely implicated based solely on co-accused's statements. Considering the seriousness of the offense, commercial quantity of contraband seized, and lack of satisfactory evidence proving his innocence or absence of recidivism risk under NDPS Section 37(1)(b), the bail application was dismissed.
