Mr.Chandra Mohan Jha For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr.Dilip Kumar No. 1 ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE PRABHAT KUMAR JHA ORAL ORDER 25-09-2019 Heard both sides.

The petitioner apprehends his arrest in Dighwara P.S. case No. 151 of 2019 registered under Section 147, 148, 149, 341, 323, 307, 353, 427, 504 of the IPC and u/s 30(a) of the Bihar Prohibition & Excise Act.

The police got information that one Nepali Singh illegally used to sale liquor and when the informant went near the house of Nepali Singh two persons managed to flee away. It was disclosed that Brajesh Singh @ Nepali Singh and Sonu Singh, the petitioner, both sons of Shailendra Singh, managed to flee away from the place of occurrence. On search, huge quantity of Indian made foreign liquor kept in five cartoons were recovered from the house of petitioner.

The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.59345 of 2019(2) dt.25-09-2019 2/2 petitioner is not residing in the house. Brajesh Singh @ Nepali Singh had already been arrested and he was granted bail. The petitioner is brother of Brajesh Singh @ Nepali Singh. There is no proof of recovery from the house of petitioner but it appears that after seeing the police both the brothers fled away and on search huge quantity of liquor was recovered from their house. The police specifically stated that recovered liquor was destroyed on the road and there appears that petitioner and his brother were indulged in illegal trade of liquor. Taking into consideration the facts aforesaid, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on anticipatory bail. Accordingly, the same is rejected.
