This is first bail application filed under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for grant of regular bail to the applicants who have been arrested in connection with Crime No. 284/2020 registered at Police Station- Civil Line, DistrictBilaspur (C.G.) for the offence punishable under Sections 34(1)A, 34(2) & 59 of the Chhattisgarh Excise Act. 2.

The case of the prosecution is that the applicants were found to be in possession of illicit liquor measuring about 6 bulk liters and they were arrested on 27.04.2020.

3.

Learned counsel for the applicants submits that the applicants have been falsely implicated in this case and they

are in jail since 27.04.2020, therefore, they may be released on bail.

On the contrary, learned State counsel opposes the application for grant of bail.

Looking to the facts and circumstances of the case and further looking to the quantity of liquor seized in the present case, I am inclined to release the applicant on bail. 6.
