IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.8654 of 2011 KARU DAS @ SONU DAS @ KARU PASWAN S/O SARYUG PASWAN @ SARYUG DAS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 25.03.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the state. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offence under Section 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code. Considering that the petitioner kept absconding for number of years even while the case of the co-accused was committed to the court of Sessions, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage. Prayer for bail is rejected. However, the petitioner will be liberty to renew his prayer for bail after framing of charge. It is made clear that the petitioner’s case shall not be bifurcated for purposes of commitment or framing of charge and in case it is done so, the prayer for bail shall not be considered. Fahad.
