After having heard learned Counsel for the parties concerned and taking into consideration the fact that from perusal of the prosecution Report and the seizure list, it is apparent that the illicit liquor has been recovered from the premises belonging to the petitioner and as such, a prima facie case is made out against the petitioner and in view of the Full Bench decision of this Court, in Criminal Appeal (S.J.) No. 431 of 2019 (Ram Vinay Yadav v. The State of Bihar) , I am not inclined to exercise my discretion for grant of anticipatory bail.
