Prayer in the present petition is for grant of anticipatory bail to the petitioner, who is an accused in FIR No. 94 dated 4.6.2011, registered under Section 61 of the Punjab Excise Act, at Police Station Salem Tabri, District Ludhiana. The allegations against the petitioner in the FIR is that certain IMFL bottles were found in his possession. Some of the bottles were meant for sale in Chandigarh only but the petitioner brought them to Punjab for selling.

His sister is the General Secretary of District Congress Committee (Urban), Ludhiana. The recovery of the liquor has already been effected. Considering the fact that recovery of the liquor has already been effected, even if the same belongs to the petitioner, custodial interrogation of the petitioner is not required. The petitioner is directed to appear before the Investigating Officer on 18.7.2011 at 10.00 a.m. and CRM No. M-19300 of 2011 (2) subsequently as and when called. However, in case of arrest, he shall be released on furnishing bail bonds to the satisfaction of the Arresting/Investigating Officer. He shall also be bound by all the conditions as contained in Section 438(2) Cr.P.C. The petition stands disposed of. 6.7.2011 (Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
