IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.12508 of 2009 1. PHULWA DEVI 2. SITA DEVI Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02/ 22.04.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioners were granted anticipatory bail during period of investigation till submission of charge-sheet in a police case under Section 304B, 498A and 201 of the Indian Penal Code in Criminal Misc. No. 48504 of 2008 on 15.12.2008. It is submitted that prior to the said date charge-sheet had already been submitted against them which could not be pointed out before the Court by inadvertence. When the Court was persuaded to grant anticipatory bail during the period of investigation only and prior to the same charge-sheet had already submitted, there is no occasion to reconsider the prayer for anticipatory bail on that submission. The application is rejected. Any application for regular bail on behalf of the petitioners shall be considered by the Court below on its own merit on the basis of the materials collected during investigation and the observation of this Court in the order dated 15.12.2008 with regard to the investigation without being prejudiced by the present order preferably on the date the petitioner surrender for which it is expected that the public prosecutor shall co-operate.
