Since the impugned order reflects that the petitioners were declared absconders, this court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners. However, let the learned court below consider the prayer for regular bail of the petitioners keeping in view the fact that co accused have been acquitted in case the petitioners surrender within six weeks from today in connection with Paroo P.S. Case No. 58 of 2008 (S.T. No. 879 of 2008) pending in the court of learned F.T.C. V, Muzaffarpur. This application is disposed of with the aforesaid observation/direction.
