Versus

The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Santosh Kumar Pandey, Advocate For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Satyendra Prasad, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 20-03-2017 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner.

This is an application for bail in connection with Tandwa P.S.Case No. 4 of 2017 registered for the offences punishable under Section 30(A) of Bihar Excise (Amendment) Act, 2016.

It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioner that petitioner has clean antecedent and remained in custody for two months and prosecution story is also not believable and it is alleged that 150 litres of Mohua liquor has been recovered from the possession of the petitioner.

Heard learned APP also.

Having heard both sides and in view of huge recovery, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.10515 of 2017 (3) dt.20-03-2017 2/2 Petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after completion of four months in custody before the court below itself. If such an application is filed, the court below will pass appropriate order taking into consideration the period of custody as well as the fact that petitioner is the first offender, without being prejudiced by this order.

With the above observations, this application is dismissed.
