The Court noted that the sampling method did not prima facie show prejudice, that no fixed statutory time limit for Section 52A compliance was demonstrated, and that Section 50 objections were weak where the recovery was from baggage rather than personal search. Despite prolonged custody, the stringent twin conditions under Section 37 were not satisfied, so bail was declined. en-us Fri, 18 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 25 Oct 2024 11:01:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=760763 In an NDPS bail matter involving alleged recovery of heroin in commercial quantity from baggage at the airport, the Delhi HC treated objections to sampling, delayed Section 52A compliance, and notices under Section 50 of the NDPS Act and Section 102 of the Customs Act as insufficient, at the bail stage, to discredit the recovery.
