Earlier the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected by this court vide order dated 28.09.2016 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 37521 of 2016 and again the bail of the petitioner is sought on the ground that co-ordinate Benches of this court have already granted bail to co-accused persons by passing two separate orders which are annexed as Annexure-3 and 4 to this petition. No doubt, the co-ordinate Benches of this Court have granted privilege of bail to other co-accused persons but in my
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.9211 of 2017 (2) dt.12-04-2017 2/2 view, it is not a fit case for grant of bail to petitioner and accordingly, his prayer for bail in connection with Sessions Trial No. 326 of 2016 arising out of A.T.S. P.S. Case No. 02 of 2015 pending in the court of Additional Sessions Judge-XI, Patna stands rejected.
