IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.38585 of 2008 RUPNARAIYAN MAHTO Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4 17.12.2008 The reason why the court is not inclined to consider the prayer for bail of the petitioner is because he has been fugitive from law for almost 10 years, that was the reason why the trial had to be separated from the other co-accused. Since the main allegation is against the present petitioner, therefore, enlarging him on bail, keeping the past conduct in mind will further jeopardize the trial of the case which is prima facie is serious in nature. The bail application of the petitioner is rejected. Trial Court of Additional Sessions Judge, Fast Track Court No. 2 is directed to expedite the trial of the case. Rajeev/ (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
