IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.5054 of 2009 DHAMALOO PANDEY Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4 8.4.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. Earlier the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected on merits. Therefore, there would be no question to reconsider the prayer for bail of the petitioner. As with regard to the criminal antecedent of the petitioner, counsel for the petitioner would submit that though there were 26 cases against the petitioner out of which he has been acquitted in 15 cases. That would hardly be a circumstance to release the petitioner on bail specially when he is made accused in the present case in connection with not only under Section 414 of the I.P.C. but also under Section 25(1-b)(a)/26 of the Arms Act. That being so, the prayer for bail of the petitioner, namely, Dhamaloo Pandey is rejected and the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after completing three and half years of judicial custody in the present case.
