IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.39294 of 2010 MAHESH BIN @ KHOKHA S/O KHEDAN BIN Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 25.11.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under Sections 353, 307/34 of the Indian Penal Code 27 of the Arms Act. Even though the occurrence is of the year 1997 and the charge sheet was submitted in the year 2000. The petitioner kept absconding for a number of years and he surrendered only on 29.10.2010. I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. The application is presently dismissed. However, the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after framing of charge and it is made clear that the petitioner’s bail shall not be considered, if his case is bifurcated for purposes of commitment or framing of charge. Fahad. ( Anjana Prakash, J. )
