• State Of Chhattisgarh Through District Magistrate, District Durg Chhattisgarh., District : Durg, Chhattisgarh ----Non-applicant For Applicant - Shri Anmol Sharma, Advocate. For Non-applicant/State - Shri Adil Minhaj, Panel Lawyer. Hon'ble Shri Justice Rajendra Chandra Singh Samant Order on Board 22-07-2019 1.

Heard on the application filed under Section 439 of the Cr.P.C. This is first bail application before this Court filed by the applicant for grant of regular bail. The applicant has been arrested on 18-03-2019 in connection with Crime No.52/2019 registered at P.S. - Bhilai-3, District Durg, Chhattisgarh for the offence under Section 34(2) of C.G. Excise Act. 2.

It is submitted on behalf of the applicant that the applicant has been falsely implicated in this case. He is in jail since 18-03-2019. Hence, it is prayed that the applicant may be released on regular bail. 3.

Learned counsel for the State/non-applicant opposes the application and submission. It is submitted that 32 quarters, total 7.60 bulk liter illicit liquor has been seized from the possession of the applicant. Also, there is one previous case for similar offence and two previous cases under the provisions of the IPC registered against the applicant. Hence, he is not entitled for grant of bail.

4.

Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case diary. 5.

Considering on the submissions made and the contents of the case

-2diary, detention of the applicant till conclusion of the trial would not serve any purpose. Though previous cases have been reported against the applicant, but his conviction or acquittal in those cases has not been reported. Hence, for these reasons, I am of the view that the application deserves to be allowed. 6.

Consequently, this application filed by the applicant under Section 439 of the Cr.P.C. for grant of regular bail is hereby allowed. It is directed that the applicant shall be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one surety in the like sum to the satisfaction of the concerned Court, for his appearance as and when directed. 7.
