IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.36501 of 2009 MANAGER YADAV Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 03. 19.11.2009 Bettiah Town P S Case No. 105 of 2000 was registered under sections 307/34 of the Indian Penal Code initially but later on converted into section 302 of the Indian Penal Code read with section 27 of the Arms Act. Shorn of other details submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that petitioner surrendered in this case on 14.2.2009 after he learnt that acquittal of the other accused persons is imminent as the case was not found to be true but there is no explanation about the petitioner’s absence from the year 2000 to 2009. Obviously the trial has been held with regard to others and petitioner has been absconder and therefore trial has been separated. It is in the fitness of things that trial of the case is expedited. The prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected at this stage for the reasons that there is no explanation of his absence from law for almost 8-9 years. rkp (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J)
