1. As per applicant, this is first bail application under Section 439 of the Cr.P.C. preferred by the applicant before this Court and no other bail application is pending before any other Court.

2. The applicant has been arrested in connection with Crime No. 189/2021 registered in Police Station Patan, District Durg (CG) for offence punishable under Section 34(2) of C.G. Excise Act.

3. Prosecution story in brief is that on 08/10/2021, 5.940 bulk liter of country made liquor has been seized from the possession of applicant.

4. Counsel for the applicant argued that the applicant is innocent, he has been falsely implicated, he is in jail since 08/10/2021, hence he be released on bail.

5. On the other hand, the State counsel opposed the bail application. He further submits that two cases have already been registered against the applicant, one of the Excise Act and another of IPC,

therefore, he prays to dismiss his bail application.

Looking to the facts and circumstances of the case, looking to the quantity of the liquor seized from the illegal possession of the applicant and also considering the detention period of the applicant, I feel inclined to allow the bail application. It is directed that if the applicant furnishes one solvent surety for a sum of Rs.25,000/- along with one personal bond in the like sum to the satisfaction of the trial Court concerned for his appearance before the concerned Court as and when directed by the said Court, he be released on bail.
