IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.12739 of 2009 SOHARI SINGH @ SOHARI YADAV Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 25.7.2009 In this case this Court granted bail to the petitioner on 20.5.2009 on the ground that he had remained in custody for about six and half years. The letter has been received by Shree Arun Kumar Sinha, Additional Sessions Judge-II, Aurangabad stating that the petitioner was convicted on 15.5.2009 whereas the bail was granted by this Court on 20.5.2009. In the aforesaid circumstances, it is obvious that the bail granted to the petitioner cannot be treated to be bail granted after conviction and in fact the bail application has become infructuous on the date it was heard. In view of the fact that the petitioner has been convicted, the order of bail becomes meaningless. P. Kumar (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
