IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.6852 of 2008 BIDYANAND KUMAR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3 5.5.2008 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner is an accused in a case under sections 20 and 22 of the N.D.P.S. Act. Earlier the petitioner’s prayer for bail was rejected on 30.10.2006. It is alleged that 50 kgs of Ganja was recovered and the petitioner was caught on chase. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the trial has commenced and seizure list witnesses have been examined and only the police witnesses have to be examined. It is further submitted that the I.O. has also been examined. The last witness was examined one year back. In the facts and circumstances of the case I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. This bail petition is dismissed. However, I direct that the trial of the case should be expedited and the trial court should issue bailable and non-bailable warrant of arrest against the witnesses who are required to be present in court. It is submitted that the witnesses are members of the raiding party and I see no reason why there should be such a delay in securing their attendance. The court below should send requisition to the Supdt. Of Police, Gaya with the names of the witnesses who are to be produced in court so that the trial may be concluded as expeditiously as possible. Let a copy of this order be sent to the Supdt.of Police, Gaya. haque (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
