Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3 15/10/2009 Heaving heard counsel for the State as also on perusal of the case diary it would appear that in a criminal case of the year 2002 even when name of the petitioner had transpired on 6.5.2002, he had remained absconding for a period of more than six years and had surrendered before the Court only on 25.9.2009.

Considering all these aspect, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected. Abhay Kumar (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
