IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.33068 of 2008 RANJIT THAKUR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 08.08.2008 Prayer of the petitioner is for grant of bail in S.C.No.386 of 2008 arising out of Complaint case No.195C of 1994 registered under Section 395 of the Indian Penal Code. Mr.Rajesh Kumar, appears on behalf of the petitioner. State is represented by Mr.Mehta, Additional Public Prosecutor. Taking into account the fact that the petitioner had remained absconder for a very long time, the learned Judge declined his prayer for grant of bail. While doing so he has also taken into account the allegation levelled against him. In view of the nature of allegation and material available, I am not inclined to accede to the prayer of the petitioner. However, in case the trial is not concluded within a year, petitioner may renew his prayer for bail before the court below itself. Application stands dismissed with the observation aforesaid.
