Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.54971 of 2022(2) dt.18-11-2022 2/2 from the place of occurrence. He has no concern either with the seized liquor or the place of recovery or any trade of liquor. He has been falsely implicated in this case at the instance of his enemy. The house of the petitioner is inhabited by his several family members and he had no knowledge of keeping of the said liquor in the house. Petitioner has one criminal antecedent of similar nature as mentioned in para-3 of this application. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, recovery of liquor from the house of the petitioner and the criminal antecedent of the similar nature of the offence, I am not inclined to enlarge him on anticipatory bail. The prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected.
