DATED THIS THE 26TH DAY OF DECEMBER, 2006
O R D E R
In this Petition filed under Sec.439 Cr.P.C. the petitioner, a lady,
who is the accused in Crime No.190/06 of Chengannur Excise Range
for offences punishable under Sections 8(1) and 8(2) of the Abkari
Act, for having been found in possession of 1.5 litres of arrack on
24.10.2006.seeks her enlargement on bail.
2. I heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the
learned Public Prosecutor. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed
the application submitting, inter alia, that the petitioner is an accused
in another case involving similar offence.
3. I am not satisfied that both the grounds enumerated
under Clause (b)(ii) of Sec.41 A of the Abkari Act are present in this
case so as to justify the release of the petitioner on bail.
This application is accordingly dismissed.
