IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.25583 of 2010 1. REKHA DEVI 2. Parmeshwar Das Versus The STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2/ 17.08.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State. Petitioners are Nanad and Nodosi, rightly were allowed anticipatory bail by this Court in the year 2004 but they remained absent all along with submission that father of the husband was allowed bail with them, who died. So, they could not know about the result may not be accepted as reasonable explanation for non-appearance for such a long period though time was not given for surrender. I find it not a fit case to further allow them on bail. Accordingly, prayer of the petitioners for grant of anticipatory is rejected. However, they are directed to surrender before the Court below in connection with Jagdishpur P.S. Case No. 91 of 2004 in the Court of C.J.M., Bhagalpur and pray for regular bail explaining the circumstances of their absence, if satisfactory, can be made a ground for bail on the same day to the petitioners without caring this rejection order.
