AI extract
What is this about?
Anticipatory bail; extension of time to surrender; modification petition rejected as afterthought; Cr. Misc. No. 9013 of 2025 in Cr. Misc. No. 67609 of 2024; Laltu Mukhia @ Laltu Kumar Mukhia v. The State of Bihar; PS Case No. 92 of 2024, Bhaptiahi, Supaul; APP objection; illiterate petitioner working out of State; Rajiv Roy, J.; Patna High Court; decided 21-02-2025.
What did the court decide?
The Court agreed with the learned APP that the petitioner's plea of being illiterate and working out of State was unsupported on record and amounted to an afterthought, four weeks' time having already been granted to surrender; the modification petition therefore needed to be rejected. ¶¶21
