IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Criminal Miscellaneous No.21139 of 2011 Navin Kumar, Son of Shri Shankar Sah, Resident of Village Chandpura, P.S.-Nima Chandpura, District-Begusarai. …..Petitioner. Versus The State of Bihar …..Opposite Party. For the Petitioner : Mr. Bipin Kumar, Advocate. For the State : APP. ---------------------------------- 03/ 21.09.2011 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Counsel for the State. The petitioner is husband of the deceased of the case which has been registered under Sections 498(A)/304(B) of the Indian Penal Code. Prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected twice, considering the fact that the married lady of the year 2003 was burnt to death in the year 2007. There was allegation that she was being subjected to tortured in connection with demand of dowry. Submission is that the petitioner is in custody since 14.12.2007 and there is no possibility of conclusion of the trial in near future. Prayer for bail of the petitioner was refused by this Court and subsequently, the order of rejection was challenged before the Apex Court where his SLP (Criminal) No. 2 8588 of 2010 was dismissed on 22.09.2010. Thereafter, a report was called for by this Court and according to the report 12 witnesses including the informant have been examined on behalf of the prosecution and there is likelihood of disposal of the case within six months. Considering the report of the trial court and also that, prayer for bail of the above named petitioner has even been refused by the Apex Court I am not inclined to grant bail. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is again rejected. kksinha/- (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
