IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr Misc No 12972 of 2008 BIJNESH RAI @ PRAMUKH & ANR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 13.05.2008 This is a case of abuse of privilege of bail. Petitioners were released in Jurawanpur Police Station Case No 53 of 2000 which is pending in the Court of Additional Sessions Judge, Vaishali being Sessions Trial No 338 of 2007. They jumped bail on 10.03.2003 and ultimately they were arrested and remanded on 16.04.2007 since when they are in jail. It is submitted that petitioners have earlier been on bail and now they have been in jail for over one year. While rejecting the bail application, the learned Additional Sessions Judge, before whom the case was pending trial, has opined that the trial could be concluded within two months and, as such, he has not released the petitioners on bail. In my view, the order requires no interference. However, as that order was passed in March 2008, I direct that if by 30th of July 2008, petitioners cooperating, the trial is not concluded, the petitioners Bijnesh Rai @ Pramukh and Lalindra Rai would be released on bail on each of them furnishing bonds of Rs 10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Additional Sessions Judge, Fast Track Court No I, Vaishali at Hajipur in Sessions Trial No 338 of 2007 arising out of Jurawanpur Police Station Case No 53 of 2000.
