IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.33978 of 2010 SHASHI BHUSHAN RAY Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02 09.11.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned P.P. for the State. Admittedly, earlier the prayer for anticipatory bail of this petitioner (Shashi Bhushan Ray) was rejected vide order dated 12.07.2010. passed in Criminal Miscellaneous No. 21887 of 2010 but this second bail petition has been filed on behalf of the petitioner on the ground that the parties have already settled their dispute by entering into compromise. I do not think any new ground to renew the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner. Accordingly, this anticipatory bail petition stands disposed of with direction to petitioner to surrender before the learned court below and seek regular bail within thirty days from the date of communication of this order to the concerned court and if petitioner so surrenders before the learned court below within above stated period, the learned court below shall consider the regular bail application of the petitioner on its own merit without being prejudiced by rejection of this court, particularly, keeping in mind the factum of compromise as well as this aspect of the matter that other co-accused persons have already been granted anticipatory bail by this Court.
