The petitioner seeks anticipatory bail in connection with Daudpur PS case no. 184 of 2017 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 30(a) of the Bihar Prohibition and Excise Act.

The allegation is regarding recovery of 9 liters of illicit liquor from the possession of the co-accused person, on whose interrogation the name of the petitioner has transpired. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that neither any recovery has been effected from the conscious possession of the petitioner nor he has anything to do with the coaccused person and the petitioner is having a clean antecedent.

Accordingly, in the event of arrest or surrender before the concerned court within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of the present order, the petitioner above named is directed to be released on anticipatory bail on furnishing bonds of Rs. 10,000/- (Rs.
