JUSTICE MAHESH BHAGWATI Mr. Liyakat Ali, for accused petitioner. Mr. Amit Punia, Public Prosecutor, for State. This order governs the disposal of bail petition filed under section 439 of Cr.P.C. by Mr. Liyakat Ali Advocate on behalf of the applicant Jeevraj Singh pertaining to FIR No.166/2009 of Police Station Chidawa, District Jhunjhunu in the offence under section 19/54 of Rajasthan Excise Act. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as also the learned Public Prosecutor for the State and perused the relevant material available on record. 3. 700 bottles of illicit liquor is alleged to have been recovered from the possession of the accused-petitioner. Learned counsel for the petitioner has canvassed that he has been falsely implicated and is in no way connected with the commission of the offence of the instant case. No other criminal case is pending against him. He is innocent. He has been in custody for quite a long time, hence, he may be granted indulgence of bail. 4. Learned Public Prosecutor has opposed the bail petition on the ground that he was the driver of the vehicle. 5. Having considered the submissions made at the bar and scanned the relevant material on record, I, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case but keeping in view the huge quantity of illicit liquor recovered from the possession of the petitioner, do not feel inclined to grant bail to the petitioner and the same deserves to be dismissed. 6. In the result, the bail petition filed under Section 439 of Cr.P.C. on behalf of the accused-petitioner Jeevraj Singh stands dismissed. (MAHESH BHAGWATI)J. Mak/- 23
