After having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State and from perusal of the materials available on record, it appears that police recovered the liquor in question from the house of Shravan Kumar and not from the premises or conscious possession of the petitioner and his name surfaced on the basis of statement of co-accused Shravan Kumar. Upon perusal of FIR, no prima facie case is made out against him as such I am inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to him.
