It further appears from para 3 of the bail petition that petitioner is accused in another case under section 30(A) of Bihar Excise (Amendment) Act, 2016.

Keeping in view recovery of huge quantity of country-made liquor from possession of this petitioner, this court is not inclined to grant bail to petitioner at this stage. The prayer
