Sahil Kumar filed a petition before the Himachal Pradesh High Court seeking regular bail in connection with FIR No. 106 of 2026, registered under Section 20 of the NDPS Act at Police Station Joginder Nagar, District Mandi. The prosecution alleged that on 30.06.2026, acting on secret information, police apprehended the petitioner and recovered 143 grams of cannabis from a carry bag he was holding, in the presence of two witnesses. The petitioner's counsel argued that 143 grams falls in the intermediate quantity category (not commercial quantity), making the stringent conditions of Section 37 of the NDPS Act inapplicable, and that the petitioner is the sole breadwinner of his family. The court considered the parameters for granting bail as laid down by the Supreme Court in Pinki v. State of U.P. (2025) 7 SCC 314 and other precedents, examining factors such as nature of the charge, severity of punishment, likelihood of repetition of offence, and the prima facie case against the accused. The judgment text as provided does not record a final operative order, as it concludes mid-analysis while discussing the legal principles applicable to bail.
