IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.26084 of 2008 NAGENDRA PANDEY Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4 14.8.2008. Heard counsel for the petitioner and the State. This is the second time that the petitioner has filed his anticipatory bail application in connection with Sahar P.S.Case no.82 of 2003. Prayer for grant of anticipatory bail was earlier rejected in Cr.Misc.No.30039 of 2004 considering its merit. In this connection petitioner has placed reliance on a decision reported in 2006(Crimes) 802 which is the decision of Gauhati High Court in which it has been held that the second anticipatory bail is maintainable. No decision of Patna High Court or the Supreme Court has been placed wherein it has been decided that second anticipatory bail application is maintainable. It is the practice of the Patna High Court that once anticipatory bail application is considered and rejected on merit and no liberty is given to the petitioner for filing another application for granting anticipatory bail in future, second anticipatory bail is not entertained. Petitioner’s prayer is rejected. Sss/- (Mridula Mishra, J)
