Versus

1. State of Chhattisgarh Through Station House Officer Police Station Chhuikhadan, District Rajnandgaon Chhattisgarh ---- Non-applicant For Applicants - Shri Abhishek Sharma, Advocate. For Non-applicant/State - Shri Sumit Jhanwar, Panel Lawyer. Hon'ble Shri Justice Chandra Bhushan Bajpai Order on Board 11-04-2017 1.

Heard the matter finally.

2.

Learned counsel for the applicant would submit that the applicant held arrested in connection with Crime No.48/17 on 10-03-2017 by Chhuikhadan police, Distt. Ranandgaon, C.G. for the offence under Section 34(2) of the C.G. Excise Act. The charge sheet has not yet been filed and the applicant is remanded by the Addl. CJM Khairagarh, Distt. Rajnandgaon. This is the first bail application. No other criminal antecedent is reported and as per the allegation, 6.300 M.L. country liquor has been seized from the conscious possession of the applicant. He will not commit any offence in future. He may be granted bail.

3.

Per contra, learned counsel for the non-applicant/State opposed the argument advanced on behalf of the applicant though fairly conceded that police during investigation not noticed any earlier criminal antecedent of the applicant.

4.

Perused the matter.

5.

On due consideration, I am inclined to grant bail to the applicant. Consequently, the instant MCRC is hereby allowed. The applicant is directed to

-2be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.25,000/- with one solvent surety of the like sum to the satisfaction of the Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Khairagarh, District Rajnandgaon, C.G. for his appearance before the said trial Court as and when directed. 6.

It is made clear that this order granting bail to the applicant shall stand cancelled automatically without reference to the Bench by the Court below if (i) the trial Court finds that the applicant suppressed filing or pendency of any other application for grant of bail before this Court or the Hon'ble Apex Court intentionally; (ii) the applicant does not cooperate in the trial; (iii) the applicant is found to be involved in any offence of the like nature; and (iv) the trial Court finds that the applicant remains absent without any sufficient and cogent reason. If bail is cancelled automatically in view of above, the Court below may proceed further under the provisions of law under intimation. 7.

Certified copy as per rules.
