2   19-01-2026             Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP

                   for the State.

                           2.       The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection

                   with Kanti PS Case No. 965 of 2023 instituted for the offences

                   under Sections 30(a), 32(2), 32(3), 36, 41(1) & 41(2) of the

                   Bihar Prohibition and Excise Act.

                           3.       The prosecution case, in short, is that total 5670

                   litres of liquor was recovered from truck and four pickup

                   vehicles.

                           4.       Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that

                   the petitioner has falsely been implicated in the present case.

          The name of the petitioner transpired in this case as being owner

          of one of the Pickup van. In this connection, it is submitted that

          petitioner has sold the same to one another person. The

          petitioner has got no concern with the alleged recovery of

          liquor. The petitioner has no criminal antecedent. There is no

          compliance of Section 103 of the Bharatiya Nagarika Suraksha

          Sanhita, 2023. Learned counsel for the petitioner, therefore,

          contends that prima-facie no case is made out against the

          petitioner. Other co-accused has been granted bail by this Court

          vide order dated 08.12.2025, passed in Cr. Misc. No. 79101 of

          2025.

                  5.      Learned APP for the State has vehemently opposed

          the prayer for grant of bail to the petitioner.

                  6.      Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances

          of the case, let the petitioner above named, in the event of

          arrest/surrender before the learned Court below within a period

          of six weeks from today, be released on anticipatory bail on

          furnishing bail bonds of Rs.15,000/- (Fifteen thousand) with two

          sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Court

          below/concerned Court in connection with Kanti PS Case No.

          965 of 2023, subject to the conditions as laid down under

          Section 482(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarika Suraksha Sanhita,
