REPRESENTING THE EXCISE INSPECTOR, PARALI, IN CRIME NO.20/2011. PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI.C.S.HRITHWIK THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 21/06/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. RAMKUMAR, J. ----------------------------------------------- Bail Appln.No.4629 of 2011 ------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 21st day of June, 2011 ORDER In this Petition filed under Section 439 Cr.P.C. the petitioner who is the sole accused in Crime No.20 of 2011 of Parali Excise Range for an offence punishable under Section 8 (1) of the Abkari Act for allegedly having been found in possession of 5 litres of arrack, seeks his enlargement on bail. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending inter alia that the petitioner is involved in yet another Abkari offence involving arrack. 3. It is too early to accept the petitioner's contention that he has been falsely implicated in the case. Moreover, I am not satisfied that both the grounds enumerated under Section 41A (b)(ii) of the Abkari Act are present in this case so as to justify his release on bail. With the above observation this Application is dismissed. Dated this the 21st day of June, 2011. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. skj
