IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.14013 of 2009 KANHAIYA SINGH Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 23.7.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP for the State. One of the reasons the Court is not willing to enlarge the petitioner on bail who is an accused in relation to Buxar Rail P.S. Case No. 57 of 2000 for the offence under sections 395 and 412 of the Indian Penal Code is because he has been absconder from law for almost nine years. Submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that the other co-accused has already been exonerated after trial and therefore he should be granted bail. In absence of any explanation for his absence for the last nine years, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to petitioner at this stage. If the trial is not concluded within nine months then he may approach this Court for fresh consideration. RPS (Ajay Kumar Tripathi,J.)
