State of Rajasthan 1996 (2) WLC 405. The relevant portion of the order is reproduced as under:-
21. In the present case, a careful scrutiny of the challan reveals that none of the witnesses cited in the charge-sheet have been seen the accused-appellant sowing, weeding watering and giving care and attention for protection of the cannabis plants in question. It is not possible in the present case also to infer or together from attending circumstances that the accused-applicant was giving any careful attention to protect the cannabis plants in question.
Learned Public Prosecutor further submits that total 84 illegal cannabis plants weighing 38 kg 900 gms recovered from the petitioner.
6. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case and looking to the nature of accusation and gravity of the offence, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, I am not inclined to grant bail under Section 439 Cr.P.C. to the petitioner.
7. Accordingly, the bail application preferred by the petitioner under Section 439 Cr.P.C. is dismissed.
