IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.41375 of 2008 SURYA NARAYAN THAKUR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 24.09.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. Petitioner is named as an accused in the F.I.R. and his prayer for anticipatory bail was rejected by this Court on 7.9.2000 i.e. almost eight years earlier but apparently, petitioner has not surrendered for such long period. This Court finds no good reasons to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner. The prayer of the petitioner for anticipatory bail is again rejected. If the petitioner surrenders in the court below within four weeks and prays for regular bail in that event his prayer for bail should be considered expeditiously on its own merit.
