Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.53099 of 2022(2) dt.16-11-2022 2/2 The petitioner has no concern with the seized illicit liquor. A statement has been made in para 3 of the petition that petitioner is accused in three other cases apart from the present one. Learned APP appearing on behalf of State vehemently opposed the prayer of anticipatory bail of the petitioner and submits that petitioner has three antecedents of similar nature. Considering the fact that petitioner is accused in three other cases apart from the present one, this Court is not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the petition is disposed off with a liberty to the petitioner to surrender before learned concerned Court and pray for regular bail. The learned concerned Court may consider the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner, keeping in view the facts discussed above and without being prejudiced by the order of this Court.
