Court noted drug peddlers use smaller packets to challenge sampling procedures during investigation. While prosecution must prove quantity beyond reasonable doubt, petitioner failed to explain contents of similarly packed packets that tested positive for heroin. Court found substance in different packets had similar texture, color, and tested positive in field testing. Under Section 37 NDPS Act, reasonable grounds must exist to believe accused is not guilty. Court held no reasonable grounds existed to find proceedings vitiated due to alleged sampling deficiencies, which could only be considered after evidence is led during trial. en-us Wed, 03 Aug 2022 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 22 Oct 2024 20:29:26 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=458335 Delhi HC dismissed bail application in NDPS case involving heroin recovery.
