It has been submitted on behalf of petitioner that he is innocent and has been falsely implicated in this case. Nothing was recovered from his conscious possession. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent.

Allegation is recovery of 3 lites of country made liquor from the house of petitioner, as such anticipatory bail application is not maintainable and is accordingly dismissed. However, if petitioner surrenders and seeks regular bail then his prayer for regular bail shall be considered on its own merit without being prejudiced by this order. (S. Kumar, J) veena/rajivU T
