Summary: The Supreme Court granted leave and allowed Monu Kushwaha's appeal, ordering his release on regular bail despite being accused under Section 20(b) of the NDPS Act for alleged possession of 12 kg of ganja. The Court found that continued incarceration was unwarranted since investigation was complete, chargesheet filed, trial commenced, and the appellant had no prior criminal antecedents. The jurisdictional court was directed to impose such bail terms and conditions as it deems fit. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
