IN THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA

CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION

CRIMINAL APPEAL NO .5163 /2024 [@ SLP [CRL.] NO.12902/2024]

AFAZAL SIDDIQUI Appellant(s)

VERSUS

THE STATE OF BIHAR Respondent(s)

O R D E R

Leave granted.

The appellant stands charged for the offence

punishable under Sections 20(b)(ii)(B), 22(b) and

23(b) of the NDPS Act, 1985.

Taking into consideration the facts that the

appellant has undergone incarceration for more than

11 months, the contraband seized is not of commercial

quantity, there are no prior criminal antecedents in

which the appellant is involved, and that the trial

is likely to take some more time to conclude, we are

inclined to grant bail to the appellant.

Accordingly, the impugned order stands set aside

and the appellant is granted bail on terms and

conditions which are to the satisfaction of the Trial

Court.

2

The appeal stands allowed accordingly.

Pending applications, if any, shall stand

disposed of.
