Case no. 93/2010 registered under sections 272, 273 of the IPC and section 47A of the Excise Act and accordingly, both the above stated petitions have been disposed of by this common order. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned P.P. for the State. Allegedly, petitioner in Cr. Misc.no.3145/2011 was caught by the police official while he was carrying 1000 liter sprit on his Tata Magic vehicle and in course of interrogation, he disclosed this fact that he had to deliver seized sprit to petitioner in Cr. Misc. no. 1959/2011 and some other co-accused persons. The contention of the learned counsel for petitioner in Cr. Misc. no. 1959/2011 is that name of the petitioner came in the confessional statement of co-accused Dinesh Bhagat who happens to be petitioner in Cr. Misc.no.3145/2011 and nothing has been recovered from conscious possession of petitioner in Cr. Misc. no.1959/2011. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner in Cr. Misc. no. 3145/2011 submits that, admittedly, petitioner was only driver of the aforesaid vehicle and he has been languishing in jail custody since - 2 - long. Taking into consideration the above stated facts and circumstances as well as submissions of the parties, petitioners (Dewal Sahani and Dinesh Bhagat) are directed to be released on bail in connection with Pakridayal P.S.
