ORAL ORDER
18-08-2026
1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.
2. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in a case registered for the offences punishable under Section 30(a) of the Bihar Excise Act.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has antecedent of seven cases out of which four cases are under the Excise Act and allegation is of recovery of 174 litres of liquor from the hut of the petitioner.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was not arrested from the spot as such nothing was recovered from his conscious possession. It is asserted and submitted that the hut does not belong to the petitioner but since he has antecedent as such he came to be implicated based on Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.57141 of 2026(2) dt.18-08-2026
secret information which is the easiest way to implicate someone. It is further submitted that once an accused is implicated in a case relating to excise, the police starts implicating mechanically either at the instance of Chowkidar, local person, confessional statement or secret information without holding a proper investigation.
5. Learned A.P.P. for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner.
6. Considering the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, the petitioner above-named, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the learned trial court within a period of six weeks from today, be released on Provisional anticipatory bail on furnishing bail bonds of Rs. 35,000/- (Rupees Thirty-five Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned trial court where the case is pending/successor court in connection with Rajpur P.S. Case No. 228 of 2026, subject to the conditions as laid down under Section 482(2) of the BNSS.
7. It is made clear that thereafter the learned Trial Court shall verify the criminal antecedent of the petitioner and in the event if it is found that petitioner has antecedent of more than seven cases then it would be presumed that petitioner, for Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.57141 of 2026(2) dt.18-08-2026
the purposes of seeking anticipatory bail, had concealed his antecedent before this Court, as such, the provisional anticipatory bail order shall not be confirmed, but after verification if it is found that petitioner has antecedent of seven cases, in that event the provisional anticipatory bail order shall be confirmed forthwith.
