P.P. ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE BIRENDRA PRASAD VERMA ORAL ORDER 2 27-06-2012 Heard. This is second attempt made on behalf of the petitioner for grant of anticipatory bail in a criminal prosecution registered under [STATUTE] . The prayer for anticipatory bail made on behalf of the petitioner was earlier rejected by a reasoned and speaking order dated 22.6.2010 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 19863 of 2010 with a direction to the petitioner to surrender in the court below within a period of four weeks from that date and seek regular bail in Complaint Case No. 1670C of 2008/Trial No. 2800 of 2010. Apparently, the petitioner has not complied with the order and direction issued by this Court. This Court does not find any good ground for Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.22252 of 2012 (2) dt.27-06-2012 2 / 2 2 reviewing the order passed by this Court earlier refusing the prayer for anticipatory bail made on behalf of the petitioner. Consequently, the petition fails and it is, accordingly, dismissed. Kanth/- (Birendra Prasad Verma, J)
