IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.12402 of 2009 Laxman Prasad, Son of Bhota Mahto, resident of Village-Mehsi, P.S. Mehsi, District-East Champaran --- Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 19-05-2009 Heard Mr. Rajesh Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner as also Mr.Jharkhandi Upadhaya, learned A.P.P. for the State. Petitioner Laxman Prasad though released on bail in connection with Motipur P.S. Case no.106 of 1995 registered under Sections 279,337 and 338 I.P.C. again finds himself in custody for having misused the privilege of bail It appears that the petitioner had been granted bail in the said case on 3.1.1996 and in absence of proper pairvi, his bail bond was cancelled on 1.9.2003 whereafter he continued to remain an absconder till his surrender on 23.1.2009 since when he has been in custody. In view of the fact that the petitioner has been absconding for almost seven years, I am not at present inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail, His prayer for bail is accordingly rejected. The petitioner shall be at liberty to move fresh bail after six month. NKS/- ( Abhijit Sinha, J )
