====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANJANI KUMAR SHARAN ORAL ORDER 26-06-2024 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.

2. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Ghoshi (Okari) P.S. Case No. 107 of 2024 registered for the offences punishable under Section 30 (a) of the Bihar Prohibition and Excise Act.

3. Altogether 10 litres country made liquor has been recovered in a white plastic box from the house of the petitioner. After seeing the police, petitioner is said to have fled away from the spot.

4. It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is quite innocent and has committed no offence. No incriminating article has been recovered from the conscious physical possession of the petitioner. The allegation levelled

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.37128 of 2024(2) dt.26-06-2024 2/2 against the petitioner is totally false and based on concocted facts. In fact, the seized liquor has not been recovered from his house but recovered from the bushes nearby. He has no concern either with the seized liquor or any trade of liquor. He was not apprehended on the spot. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent as mentioned in para-3 of this application.

5. Learned APP for the State opposed the prayer for bail.

6. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, as the illicit liquor has been recovered from the house of the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge him on anticipatory bail.

7. The prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected.
