IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.34739 of 2008 LALIT MAHTO Versus STATE OF BIHAR - - - - 2. 10.9.2008 Heard. The petitioner is in custody in a complaint case in which he had obtained bail and was on bail. It so happens that the petitioner defaulted on 13.2.1997 either by not remaining in attendance or making any pairvi and, as such, his bond was cancelled. His bond appears cancelled by an order passed on 30.8.2000 and permanent warrant of arrest was issued against him on 7.9.2000. The contention is that the petitioner remained in attendance for bout two years but there was no progress in the complaint case and ultimately he entrusted the pairvi to his pairvikar and went for earning his livelihood. That could be some part of the reality but the present reality is that it is an absence from the case for over ten years. The petitioner has remained in custody since 4.4. 2008. I direct the court below to dispose of 2 the case by 20.12.2008, else, it shall release the petitioner on that date on bail to be furnishing by him to its satisfaction in Complaint Case No. 271 of 1994.
