RAMKUMAR, J. ---------------------- B.A. No. 3961 of 2011 --------------------- Dated this the 31st day of May, 2011. O R D E R In this Petition filed under Sec. 439 Cr.P.C. the petitioner who is the sole accused in Crime No.29 of 2011 of Amaravila Excise Range for an offence punishable under sec.55(i) of the Abkari Act for allegedly having been found in possession of 2 ½ litres of Indian made foreign liquor, seeks his enlargement on bail. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application contending inter alia that the petitioner is involved in three other crimes of similar nature. 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 sec.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. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. rv
