                   information about petitioner manufacturing country made

                   liquor. A raid was conducted and a furnace was found running

                   and a person fled away on seeing the Police party. On the search

                   of the said place, 15 litres of illicit country made mahua liquor,

                   some implements and raw materials for manufacturing illicit

                   liquor was recovered. The person nearby named this petitioner

                   as the person who fled away from the spot when the raid was

                   conducted.

          recovered from his person or possession. The petitioner has no

          concern either with the allegedly recovered articles or with the

          place of recovery which is a public place accessible to one and

          all. Learned counsel next submits that petitioner is having

          fact that petitioner was not apprehended from the spot and

          possession and further considering his period of custody and
