JUSTICE ANJANI KUMAR SHARAN ORAL ORDER 04-03-2022 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP for the State through virtual court proceedings. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in Jokihat (Mahalgaon) P.S. Case No.148 of 2021, registered for the offence punishable under Section 30(a) of the Bihar Prohibition and Excise Act.

5 litres of country made liquor is said to have recovered from the house of the petitioner.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and has falsely been implicated in the present case. The petitioner was not apprehended at the spot. It is submitted that the petitioner has got no criminal antecedent as stated in para 3 of the bail application.

Learned APP for the State opposed the prayer for

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.54000 of 2021(2) dt.04-03-2022 2/2 anticipatory bail of the petitioner.

Considering the fact that liquor has been recovered from the house of the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is rejected. (Anjani Kumar Sharan, J.) Sanjay/- U T
