THE STATE/ANTI-NARCOTIC THROUGH DIRECTOR-GENERAL PETITIONER versus RAFIQ AHMAD CHANNA
Section 497 (5) Control of Narcotic Substances (XXV of 1997), Section 9 (b) Constitution of Pakistan (1973), Article 185 (3) Possession of intoxicants, bail cancellation, accused of refusing cocaine weighing only 120 grams In the possession of the drug, the offense would fall under Section 9 (b) of the Narcotic Material Stances Act 1997, which would carry a maximum sentence of 7 years imprisonment. The accused was charged with fugitives. Nor was any such request submitted, as all the witnesses were not authorized, no question of tampering with the evidence arose, and did not inform the accused about any previous offense. In the past, the High Court exercised its discretion in a fair and equitable manner. The order affecting the defendant did not violate any principle for the grant of bail, nor was it clearly illegal or wrongdoing to result in abortion of justice. The request for cancellation of bail was dismissed and the appeal was refused under that order. \ R \ n
