    Summary: The High Court of Orissa rejected bail applications by Anil Meghwal and Vinay Kumar in an NDPS Act case involving possession of 22kg of contraband ganja (commercial quantity). The court found that under Section 37 of the NDPS Act, bail cannot be granted for commercial quantity drug offences unless the court is satisfied the accused is not guilty and unlikely to reoffend; Vinay Kumar suppressed his criminal antecedents, and investigation against Anil Meghwal is ongoing, making both ineligible for bail. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
