Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.47299 of 2015 (3) dt.13-01-2016 2/2 Mandal. In S.T. No. 1372 of 2012, the witnesses examined have not stated regarding the hand of the petitioner in killing the deceased Ramdhani Mandal and, as such, the petitioner deserves sympathetic consideration as he is suffering in custody since 21.07.2015.

The learned A.P.P. opposes the prayer of bail by submitting that the petitioner remained absconding resulting his trial has been separated and prayer of bail of Rajesh Thakur, similarly situated, has been rejected by this Court vide order dated 16.05.2013 passed in Cri. Misc. No. 46378 of 2012. In the facts and circumstances stated above, considering the allegation attributed against the petitioner serious in nature, this Court is not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail and accordingly, his such prayer stands rejected. However, the petitioner may renew the prayer of bail after examination of informant Ashok Yadav in S.T. No. 156(A)/2013.
