For the Petitioner/s :

Mr.Dilip Kumar Roy For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr.Md. Anbzarul Haque Sahara ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 01-08-2019 This is an application for grant of anticipatory bail in connection with Samastipur (Muffasil) P.S. Case No. 111 of 2019, disclosing offence under Section 30 (a) of the Bihar Prohibition and Excise Act, 2016.

Allegation of recovery of 7.560 liters of foreign liquor from the house of the petitioner.

Submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that though it is a joint house and petitioner has no criminal antecedent.

Heard learned A.P.P. also, who has opposed the prayer for anticipatory bail on the ground that recovery was made from the house of the petitioner and as such, this application is not maintainable.

Having heard both sides, in view of the facts and

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.32986 of 2019(3) dt.01-08-2019 2/2 circumstances, as stated above, I am not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner, however, the petitioner may move before the learned court below for regular bail which will be considered by the learned court below on its own merit, and if possible, be disposed of on the same day. With the aforesaid, this application is dismissed. (Vinod Kumar Sinha, J) Sunil Shukla/- U T
