IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.25474 of 2009 LALU YADAV, Son of late Luran Yadav, Resident of Village-Koriya Chapar, P.S. Banka, District-Banka. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4 11/11/2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. Considering the fact that the petitioner, who is an accused for the offence under sections 498 A/302/34 of the Indian Penal Code, even though as father-in-law is not aware as to how his daughter-in-law and a minor child of six months were done to death, this Court would not find any reason for entitlement of the petitioner to be released on bail especially when trial of the petitioner is in progress. In that view of the matter, while this Court would reject the prayer for bail of the petitioner, the trial court is directed to ensure that trial of the petitioner is completed within a period of six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. If for any reason trial of the petitioner is not concluded within the period as aforesaid the petitioner may initially renew his prayer for bail before the trial court who will be under obligation to record reason for not concluding the trial, whereafter only the petitioner will have liberty to move before this Court for bail.
