P.C.: P.C.: P.C.: . Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 2. The applicant is seeking bail in Sessions Case No.448 of 2000. The case was registered against the applicant and five others for the offence punishable under sections 143, 144, 147, 148, 149 and 307 read with 34 of IPC. The applicant was initially released on bail on 6.9.2001. Thereafter he remained absent all throughout and hence non bailable warrant was issued on 25.10.2002. Till 4th February, 2009 he was absconding and did not appear before the court. The case was, therefore, kept on dormant file. This court is informed that not only in the present case but the applicant was wanted in another six cases and all those cases were also kept on dormant file. Since the applicant was absconding, the present case proceeded only against other three accused. In these circumstances of the case, in my opinion, the Sessions Court has rightly rejected the application filed by the applicant. I do not find any reason to grant the prayer for bail. The application is rejected. (D.B.Bhosale, J.) (D.B.Bhosale, J.) (D.B.Bhosale, J.)
