Summary of CRM-M/12253/2026 The High Court of Punjab and Haryana granted regular bail to petitioner Gagandeep Singh, who has been in custody for over two years in an NDPS and Arms Act case involving recovery of heroin and a country-made pistol. The court found that only one of 18 prosecution witnesses has been examined, making trial conclusion indefinite, and noted that similar co-accused were already granted bail. The court held that indefinite incarceration without guilt being proven violates Article 21 of the Constitution, adopting the principle that "bail is a rule and jail is an exception." This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
