Orders
The High Court of Punjab and Haryana granted regular bail to Babli, accused of possessing 1020 Alprazolam tablets under the NDPS Act, after she spent 9+ months in custody with minimal trial progress. The court held that prolonged pre-trial detention without justifiable cause violates fundamental rights under Article 21, and that Section 37's stringent bail restrictions must be balanced against the accused's constitutional right to speedy trial. Bail was granted subject to conditions including bond furnishing, non-tampering with evidence, and monthly affidavits. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
