Excise Act, 1915. Applicant isin detention since 18.01.2024.
2. As per the prosecution story, on 04.11.2023, upon receivinginformation from an informant, police of the concerned police station seized 60bulk liters of illicit liquor from possession of the applicant. FIR was registered.
3 . Learned counsel for the applicant has submitted that applicant is in detention since 18.01.2024. He has not committed any offence and nothing hasbeen seized from his possession. He is innocent. He has been falselyimplicated. The trial of the case will take considerable time. Therefore, it isprayed that the applicant may be released on bail pending the trial.

5. Having taken into consideration all the facts and circumstances of the case including the fact that trial of the case will take considerable time, butwithout expressing anything on the merits of the case, I am of the view that it isa case in which further pre-trial detention of the applicant is not warranted.Consequently, this bail application under Section 439 of the Code of CriminalProcedure for grant of bail filed on behalf of applicant, stands allowed.

It is directed that applicant - Mukul Nishad be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- (Rupees Fiftythousand only) with one solvent surety in the like amount to the satisfaction ofthe trial Court, for his regular appearance before the trial Court during trial witha condition that he shall remain present before the concerned Court on all thedates fixed by it during trial.
