As per case facts, police found the petitioner, Arvinder Singh, and two others in a parked vehicle on 19.08.2025. During a search, 29.840 grams of heroin were recovered from beneath ... the rear seat's foot mat, leading to their arrest and a charge sheet. The petitioner filed a petition for regular bail in the High Court, arguing false implication, non-possession of heroin, bail granted to co-accused Gurpreet Singh on parity, and the intermediate quantity not attracting Section 37 of the NDPS Act. The question arose whether the petitioner should be granted bail given his criminal antecedents, the significant quantity of heroin, and the societal impact of drug offenses, despite the co-accused's bail and Section 37 not applying. Finally, the High Court dismissed the bail petition. It held that bail is not a right even for intermediate quantities. Considering the large amount of heroin, the societal harm of drug abuse, and the petitioner's criminal antecedents (previous conviction and pending FIRs), his release would send a negative signal. The parity argument was also rejected, as each accused's role and record must be individually assessed.
