Kateya, District- Gopalganj ---------------------Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR ------------------------Opposite Party ----------- 2. 12.2.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing on behalf of the State. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in a case under Section 47 A of the Excise Act. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the recovery was made from the joint house and there is no statement in the F.I.R. or in the Seizure list to say that the house from where the recovery were made belonged to the petitioner. It is secondly submitted that the petitioner is a gold smith by caste and that he is in the business of preparing ornaments and there was some dispute between the informant and thus this case has been instituted. The ground aforesaid may be a good ground for grant of regular bail to the petitioner but I am not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. The anticipatory bail application is dismissed. P. Kumar (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
