    Case Summary: CR.MA/13254/2026 The Gujarat High Court granted regular bail to Bhalaji Rumalji Thakor in a narcotic drugs case, finding insufficient evidence connecting him to 74 cough syrup bottles recovered from a co-accused. The court noted that investigation was nearly complete, the applicant had no criminal history, and prolonged detention amounted to pre-trial conviction, upholding the principle that "bail is a rule and jail is exception." Bail was set at Rs. 25,000 with conditions including weekly police station reporting, passport surrender, and restrictions on leaving Gujarat. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
