CORAM : M.G. GIRATKAR, J.

DECEMBER 05, 2018.

Heard Shri N.V. Fulzele, learned counsel for the applicant and Shri V.P. Gangane, learned APP for the nonapplicant - State. The offence punishable under Section 65(c), (d), 81, 82, 83 of Maharashtra Prohibition Act, is registered against the applicant. As per the submission of learned counsel, the name of the applicant is involved only on the statement of the Driver.

It is a fact that illicit liquor is transported from other districts to Chandrapur district. The driver used to carry illicit liquor in the truck in huge quantity. The Driver was the employee and he has to follow the directions of the master. He has stated the name of the applicant. Looking to the huge quantity of liquor seized from the truck driver and the fact that the applicant is doing the business of selling liquor in Chandrapur district, where it is completely prohibited, the applicant is not entitled to grant of anticipatory bail. Hence, the application is rejected. JUDGE *GS.
