IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.42448 of 2010 SATNARAIN THAKUR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02. 22.12.2010 Heard counsel for the parties. The petitioner has renewed his prayer for bail in view of observation made in the order dated 10.05.2010, passed in his previous bail application being Cr. Misc. No. 12291 of 2010 (Annexure-1). It appears therefrom that having regard to materials on record, his prayer for bail was rejected with an observation that if there is undue delay in trial, the petitioner shall be at liberty to renew prayer for bail. Present application has been filed on the ground that the trial has already commenced in which the informant has been examined as a witness who has not claimed identification of the petitioner in the occurrence. From his own showing, it appears that the trial has already been taken up. In that view of the matter, this Court does not find any merit in this application seeking bail. His prayer is accordingly rejected. However this Court observes that if all the prosecution witnesses are not examined within seven months from the date of receipt/communication of this order, the petitioner shall have liberty to renew his prayer for bail. hr ( Kishore K.
