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 02-04-2018 in connection with Crime No.69/2018 registered at P.S. - Khamtarai, District Raipur, 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 02-04-2018. 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 in total 5.760 bulk liter illicit liquor has been seized from the possession of the applicant. Hence, he is not entitled for grant of bail.

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

Considering on the submissions made and the contents of the case diary, detention of the applicant till conclusion of the trial would not serve any purpose. Hence, for these reasons, I am of the view that the application
