IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.2222 of 2010 JAMALUDDIN @ MANTOO @ KAMALUDDIN Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 03. 29.01.2010 Head. It appears that the petitioner is a named accused in a case instituted under section 379 IPC in relation to an occurrence that took place on 04.01.2006. It is contended that because of previous animosity, he has been named as one of the accuseds. This Court finds that in the year 2006 itself the petitioner moved for anticipatory bail in the court below which was refused. Three years later, he again applied for anticipatory bail which was rejected under the impugned order. There appears to be no explanation for such a delay. Bail application is silent. Considering this aspect of the matter as also the fact that the name of the petitioner figures in the FIR itself, this Court is not inclined to extend him the privilege of anticipatory bail. His prayer for bail is accordingly rejected. hr ( Kishore K. Mandal )
