Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.12649 of 2012 (3) dt.27-06-2012 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Criminal Miscellaneous No. 12649 of 2012 ====================================================== Islam Mian S/O Nizamuddin Mian R/O Vill-Sohasa Chhagharia, P.S.-Ramnagar, Distt-West Champaran. .... .... Petitioner/s Versus The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE JUSTICE SMT. ANJANA PRAKASH ORAL ORDER 03. 27.06.2012 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offences under [STATUTE] and Section 27 of the Arms Act. The Petitioner was refused bail by order dated 15.09.2011 but prayer for bail has been renewed on the ground of undue delay in trial. A report was called for from the Trial Court which reveals that the case was fixed for trial on which date it would have been bifurcated one of the other co-accused persons. Considering that the Petitioner is named in the dying declaration of the deceased I am not inclined to review my earlier order. The prayer for bail is once again rejected. The Trial Court is directed to expedite the trial and to take stringent action against those persons who have been released on bail and not appearing on trial. Vikash/- (Anjana Prakash, J.)
