Mr.Syed Mojibur Rahman ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 30-04-2019 This application, for grant of anticipatory bail, arises out of Excise Complaint Case No. 143/18, disclosing offences under Sections 30(a) of the Bihar Prohibition of Excise Act, 2016.

Allegation as per F.I.R. is that police on information intercepted a Magic Vehicle and recovered 162 litres of liquor kept in the specially built up box in the pick up van. Submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that he is owner of the vehicle and the vehicle is being run by its driver and petitioner has nothing to do with the alleged recovery. Further he has no criminal antecedent and has falsely been made accused in this case Learned counsel for the State opposed the prayer for

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.13544 of 2019(5) dt.30-04-2019 2/2 bail.

Having heard both sides, considering the facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to grant the privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner rather petitioner should 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, without being prejudiced by this order.

This application is, accordingly, dismissed (Vinod Kumar Sinha, J) sunilkumar/- U T
