IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.36165 of 2009 ARUN RAI S/O RAMESHWAR RAI, VILL.- MORSAND DIH, P.S.- PUSA, DISTT.- SAMASTIPUR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 4.11.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and the counsel for the State. The recovery of 223.2 litres of country made liquor in 454 pouches with other materials showing manufacturing/ preparation of country made liquor would definitely put the petitioner in the realm of suspicion even if it is said that the seizure was made in his Sasural. It is on record that at the time of seizure while the petitioner was nabbed at the spot co-accused Vinay Rai had run away and the petitioner had put his signature as the owner of the premises. That being so, the petitioner cannot claim that he was not apprehended with the seized articles. The pleas of the petitioner, however, that he is the first offender and having no criminal antecedent would make him entitle for being granted bail after completion of three months of his judicial custody and as the petitioner is said to be 2 in custody since 20.8.2009 he (Arun Rai) is directed to be released on bail on or after 20th of November, 2009 subject to his furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (Rs. Ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Samastipur in Excise Case No. 17/2009, in which one of the bailers must be either the wife of the petitioner or his parents. In the event the petitioner after being granted bail would not remain present in course of trial on two consecutive dates, his present bail shall also stand cancelled. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
