    The Jharkhand High Court granted anticipatory bail to Rinku Keshri, accused under NDPS Act sections for alleged poppy cultivation on forest department land. The court was persuaded by the petitioner's clean criminal record, the fact that the land belonged to the forest department (not the petitioner), and that a co-accused had already been granted similar bail. Keshri was directed to surrender within three weeks and release on Rs. 25,000 bail with two sureties of equal amount.
