Court grants bail to a 66-year-old man who has spent four years as undertrial
The Supreme Court has questioned the compulsion to put people in jail for years on end in drugs cases even as their trial takes forever to finish.
A Bench led by Chief Justice N.V. Ramana granted bail to a man caught in a room with 35 kg ganja by the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB).
The court said the man has been in jail for years and “there is no likelihood of completion of trial in the near future”.
