casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: State of Haryana v. Vikram Singh (Crl.A. 1001/2000) The Supreme Court dismissed Haryana's appeal and upheld the High Court's acquittal of Vikram Singh, who was convicted of drug trafficking under the NDPS Act for possessing 15 kg of opium. The Court found that the prosecution failed to establish that Singh was informed of his right to be searched before a Gazetted Officer or Magistrate as required by Section 50 of the Act, and that key prosecution witnesses (including a "stock witness") turned hostile and unreliable, rendering the search and seizure unlawful.
