1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JODHPUR ORDER S.B.CRIMINAL MISC. BAIL APPLICATION NO. 3104/2007 (Bhanwar Lal V/s State of Rajasthan) Date of Order : 10/07/2007 PRESENT HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE H.R.PANWAR Mr. G.R.Punia, for the petitioner. Mr. Ashok Upadhyay, P.P. BY THE COURT:- Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and public prosecutor for the State. The petitioner has been absconding from 03.4.2000 for almost over seven years. In Jagtar Singh Vs. Satendra Kaur alias Bhavana Grover & Ors. 2002 Cr.L.R. (SC) 807, the Hon'ble Supreme Court has held that when the accused is declared absconder, normally he is not entitled for anticipatory bail or regular bail. In view of the decision of Hon'ble Supreme Court in Jagtar Singh Vs. Satendra Kaur alias Bhavana Grover and Ors. (supra), the petitioner is not entitled for anticipatory bail. The bail application is therefore, dismissed. 2 At this stage, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner will surrender before the trial court on or before 17.7.2007 and move a regular bail and a direction may be issued to the trial court to decide the bail application on the same day. If the petitioner surrenders before the trial court on or before 17.7.2007 and moves a regular bail, the trial court is expected to decide the same on the very day in accordance with law. However, it is made clear that if the petitioner fails to appear on or before 17.7.2007, it will be open for the trial court to secure his presence by a standing warrant of arrest. (H.R.PANWAR),J. rp
