The petitioner has been arrested and is in custody since 26.05.2018.
Submission is that no intentional latches has been committed rather due to bonafide mistake the petitioner left attending the Court but he undertakes that he will remain vigilant in future. The petitioner has been sufficiently penalized by
Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.37290 of 2018(2) dt.27-06-2018 2/2 remaining in custody and, as such, he deserves sympathetic consideration.
