  1. Guys like this take India down. Drug consumers should face rigorous imprisonment and peddlers should be hanged. This is the only way of setting an example for others.

  2. Judge H T Malik, additional district and sessions court, released him after asking him to furnish a bail bond of Rs 50,000 and surety of the like amount. Kirti Azad, Delhi and India teammate, stood surety for Singh.
