Shri Dharmesh Shrivastava, Advocate For Respondent/State:
Shri Neeraj Pradhan, P.L.
Hon'ble Shri Justice P. Sam Koshy Order On Board 24/07/2015 This is the first bail application filed u/s 439 of Cr.P.C. for grant of bail to the applicant who was arrested on 14.07.2015 in connection with Crime No. 120 of 2015 registered at PS Excise Circle, Takhatpur, District Bilaspur for the offence punishable under Section 34 (1)(a), 34(2) & 59(a) of Chhattisgarh Excise Act.
As per the prosecution, on 14.07.2015, the applicant was found to be carrying 10 bulk liters of country made liquor in a motorcycle. Subsequently, a case was registered against the applicant under the provisions of Excise Act and he was arrested in connection with the said offence.
Counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has been falsely implicated in this case and he is in jail since 14.07.2015, therefore, considering these facts the applicant may be released on bail.
Per contra, counsel for the State opposes the application for grant of bail.
Considering the total facts and circumstances of the case and also the quantity of liquor which is alleged to have been seized from the possession of the applicant, I am of the opinion that it is a fit case where the present applicant can be released on bail. Accordingly, the application for grant of bail is allowed. It is directed that if the applicant furnishes a personal bond for a sum of Rs.25,000/- with one surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the concerned trial Court, he shall be released on bail. The applicant is directed to appear before the trial Court on each and every date given to him by the said Court till disposal of the trial. Sd/- (P. Sam Koshy) JUDGE Bhola
