18.08.2020.

Heard Mr. Anish Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. Bhanu Pratap Singh, learned counsel for the State. The petitioner, who is in custody since 02.02.2020 seeks bail in connection with Motipur P.S. Case No. 51/2020 instituted for the offences under Sections 272 and 273 of the Indian Penal Code and Sections 30(A)/41(1)(2) of Bihar Excise Amendment Act. It appears that a raid was conducted in the house of one Ajay Rai on the tip-off that spirit is being unloaded in his house. Some of the accused persons managed to flee away but the petitioner was

arrested. From the house of aforesaid Ajay Rai 1190 litres of liquor was recovered. One motorcycle was also found near the house of said Ajay Rai along with 35 litres of liquor. The recovered motorcycle is said to be of the petitioner.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that entire accusation in the First Information Report is false. The petitioner, if released on bail, would not be in a position to tamper with the evidence as he is a poor person. He is stated to be in custody since 04.03.2020 and bears good character.

Considering the afore-stated facts, the petitioner, above name, is directed to be released on bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Rs. Ten Thousand) with two sureties of like amount each to the satisfaction of learned Special Judge, Excise, Muzaffarpur, in connection with Motipur P.S. Case No. 51/2020. (Ashutosh Kumar, J) Sunil/- U T
