IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.20845 of 2009 KOKO MANDAL Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 30.06.2009 Heard counsel for the parties. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted under section 302/34 IPC in relation to an occurrence that has taken place on 23.03.2005. The petitioner is named In the FIR. Although there is no direct allegation against him which has been levelled against co- accuseds Manta Mandal and Shailendra Mandal, but it appears from the records that the petitioner continued evading arrest for a pretty long time and surrendered recently on 30.01.2009. Having regard to the said facts, this Court, for the present, is not inclined to admit this petitioner to bail. His prayer for bail is accordingly rejected. However, having regard to the allegation and the materials on record, this Court observes that the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after five months. hr ( Kishore K. Mandal )
