Earlier prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected vide order dated 19.5.2008 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 10522 of 2008. Report called for from the court below has been received. From the report it appears that the trial has begun and prosecution has examined one witness. Considering the seriousness of the offence, I am not inclined to take a different from earlier. Accordingly, prayer for bail of the petitioner is again rejected. However, the learned trial court is directed to expedite the trial. avin (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
