IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.37698 of 2009 ASHA DEVI Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 28-10-2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the State. The prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner was rejected along with co-accused Madan Mandal @ Madan Kumar Mandal in Cr. Misc. No.44132 of 2008. The latter has now been granted regular bail by this Court in Cr. Misc. No. 9699 of 2009 on 21.07.2009. There is no occasion to reconsider the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioner. The application is rejected. Once a superior court has granted regular bail to a co- accused, judicial discipline entails that another co-accused with common allegations seeking regular bail is entitled to be considered in that light and orders are not to be passed in a routine mechanical manner.
