Section:

Control of Narcotic Substances Act (XXV of 1997)-------Ss. 6, 9(c), 14 & 15---Constitution of Pakistan, Art. 185(3)---Possession of narcotic, aiding, abetment or association in narcotic offences---Allegations were that Ministry of Health had favoured two companies by extending/granting to them quotas of Ephedrine against the Rules and inquiry into such allegation was being obstructed and hampered---Supreme Court observed that commission of the crime, as disclosed in the F.I.R., was of a serious nature, notwithstanding whosoever was involved and what was his status, and concerned authorities should have allowed a transparent inquiry and investigation instead of causing obstructions and hampering the same for one reason or the other---Supreme Court directed that transfer/posting of Director-General, Regional Director and Deputy Director of Anti-Narcotics Force, in colourable exercise of powers, was not free from extraneous consideration, therefore, Regional Director and Deputy Director of Anti-Narcotics Force were not to relinquish the charge and they should continue with the investigation of the case without being influenced in any manner from any one---Order accordingly.
