IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.16482 of 2008 BUCHO DEVI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02. 02-05-2008 This is an application for the grant of regular bail in a case of misuse of privilege of bail for the offence of murder. Petitioner misused the privilege of bail as back as on 21st September, 1999 and she surrendered recently on 18th March, 2008. She was declared absconder on 18th August, 2004. Learned lawyer for the petitioner submits that petitioner is a rustic old lady and she shifted her residence to other place and as a result the default took place. He, therefore, prays for grant of bail. Considering the period of absconding in a case of murder together with the submissions made, the prayer for bail is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite the trial. rkp (Anwar Ahmad, J)
