Drug case: HC dismisses Kerala man’s petition
The Hindu
It declines to interfere with a trial court’s order on Rijesh Ravindran
The Karnataka High Court has declined to interfere with a trial court’s order of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) taking cognisance of offences against Kerala native Rijesh Ravindran, 37, in a drug racket case spread over Karnataka and Kerala. Justice H.B. Prabhakara Sastry dismissed the petition while observing that the order of taking cognisance of offence by the trial court cannot be found fault with. On the contention made on behalf of the accused that the trial court could not have taken cognisance of the offence as the NCB had not filed the report in the manner prescribed in the law, the High Court found nothing wrong in the procedure followed by either the NCB or the trial court.
