ANJANA PRAKASH ORAL ORDER 3. 22.2.2012 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in Sessions case No.1117 of 2010 (Akbar Nagar P.S. case No.4 of 2010) instituted for the offence u/ss.147, 148, 149, 342, 323, 324, 326, 307, 332, 333, 379, 380, 353 of the Indian Penal Code as well as 27 of the Arms Act and 17 of the C.L.A. Act and later [STATUTE] . have been added. The petitioner was refused bail by an order dated 18.8.2010 vide Cr.Misc.No.27377 of 2010 since he was circumstantially linked to the present occurrence where arms of the police were looted. The petitioner has renewed his prayer for bail on the ground of undue delay in trial. A report was called for from the Trial Court, from which it appears that now the trial of the petitioner has been separated with that of the non-appearing of the accused persons and charges have been framed on 7.12.2011 as also Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.26332 of 2011 (3) dt.22-02-2012 that the Trial Court is trying to conclude the trial on a day-to- day basis. In view of such, I am not inclined to review the earlier order. The prayer for bail is once again rejected. The Trial Court (2nd Additional Sessions Judge, Bhagalpur) is directed to send a list of the witnesses fixing specific dates for production of the witnesses along with a copy of this order to the S.P., Bhagalpur and the S.P., Bhagalpur is directed to ensure production of the witnesses on the date so fixed by the Trial Court so that there is no further delay in trial.
