                           2. The petitioners are apprehending their arrest in

                   connection with Chandi P.S. Case No. 51 of 2026 dated

                   06.04.2026 registered for the offence punishable under Sections

                   2018.

                           3. As per prosecution case, the Police have recovered total

                   250 liters of illicit country-made Mahuwa wine from two bikes

                   bearing Regd. No. BR03V-1465 (Honda Shine bike) and

                  4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the

          petitioners are innocent and have been falsely implicated in the

          present case. It is next submitted that the recovery has been

          made from the motorcycles, none of which are owned by the

          petitioners and the seized articles are in no way connected with

          the petitioners. It has further been submitted that merely because

          of antecedent of the petitioner no.1, all the petitioners have been

          falsely implicated in this case while the petitioner nos. 2 & 3

          have no criminal antecedent.

                  5. On the other hand, the learned APP for the State has

          opposed the prayer for bail of the petitioners.

                  6. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and

          considering the fact that the seized articles have been recovered

          from motorcycles with which the petitioners have no concern,

          let the above named petitioners, be released on bail, in the event

          of their arrest or surrender before the learned Court below

          within a period of six weeks from today, on furnishing bail bond

          of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) each with two sureties

          of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned

          Exclusive Special Excise Court No. 1st, Bhojpur at Ara in

          connection with Chandi P.S. Case No. 51 of 2026, subject to the

                        dates without plausible reason will entail cancellation of their

                        bail bond by the Trial Court itself;

                                (iii) the petitioner(s) shall in no way try to induce or
