Versus

The State of Bihar ... ... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s :

Mr.Anil Kumar Singh For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr.Indu Kumari Srivastava ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 23-01-2020 This application, for grant of anticipatory bail, arises out of Hilsa P.S. Case No. 333/2019, disclosing offences under Sections 272, 273 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 30(a) of the Bihar Prohibition of Excise Act, 2016. Allegation is of recovery of mahua mixture as well as 1.5 litres of liquor from the house of the petitioner. Submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that he has no criminal antecedent and has falsely been implicated in this case.

Learned counsel for the State opposed the prayer for bail and submitted that there is recovery from the house of the petitioner, as such, he does not deserve the privilege of anticipatory bail.

Having heard both sides, considering the facts and

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.722 of 2020(2) dt.23-01-2020 2/2 circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner rather petitioner has to surrender before the court below and make prayer for regular bail and if any such application is filed, the court below will dispose of the same on the merit of the case, if possible on same day, without being prejudiced by this order. This application is, accordingly, dismissed.
