Case Summary: The High Court of Punjab and Haryana granted regular bail to Charanjit Singh, arrested in an NDPS case (FIR No. 12, 2024) involving 2.6 kg opium recovery. The court found that despite over two years in custody and the challan being filed in August 2024, none of the 13 prosecution witnesses had been examined, police were not appearing for depositions, and trial conclusion would take considerable time. Applying the principle "bail is rule and jail is exception," the court ordered his release on furnishing bail bonds, clarifying this opinion expressed no view on case merits and bail could be cancelled if petitioner commits further offenses. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
