Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, June 26: Principal Sessions Judge Kamlesh Pandit today rejected the bail application of Om Parkash from whose possession police had recovered poppy straw on June 23.
“The illegal trafficking and trade in narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances has posed potential threat as it is eating the very vitals of the society and the menace of traffickers is spreading its tentacles to every nook and corner of the UT of Jammu & Kashmir”, the court said, adding “the release of accused person at this stage will definitely have its adverse affect on the society at large”.
