Narcotics charges under the Control of Narcotic Substances Act 1997 (CNSA) carry severe penalties, and the quantity recovered drives everything.

High Court Advocates Clifton, Karachi Urgent — Act Fast
What We Do

Defending CNSA Narcotics Cases

Narcotics cases turn on the alleged quantity, the chain of custody of the sample, and the manner of recovery. Under the CNSA 1997, punishment scales sharply with quantity, and bail is harder as the amount rises — which makes early, precise defence critical. We scrutinise the recovery, the sampling, the FSL report, and the procedure for the gaps that decide these cases.

We handle bail applications, trial defence, and appeals, and we act quickly on arrest — the first days often shape the whole case.

Ask a Question
Is bail possible in a narcotics case in Karachi?
Yes, though it depends heavily on the alleged quantity under the CNSA 1997 — bail is generally easier for smaller quantities and harder as the amount rises. We assess the recovery and the quantity and move for bail before the appropriate court at the earliest stage.
How does quantity affect a narcotics case?
Under the CNSA, the punishment and the bail position scale directly with the quantity recovered. The exact weight, how it was recovered, and how it was sampled are therefore central — and are the areas we examine most closely for defects.
What are the common defences in a narcotics case?
Defences often turn on the manner of recovery, breaks in the chain of custody of the sample, discrepancies in the FSL/chemical examiner's report, and non-compliance with mandatory procedure. Each case is different — we identify the strongest ground after reviewing the record.
Which court hears narcotics cases?
CNSA cases are tried by the Special Courts (Control of Narcotic Substances), with appeals to the High Court. We appear at both levels in Karachi.
A family member was just arrested in a drug case — what should I do?
