IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.2594 of 2009 JAYSILAL @ JAISILAL SAHANI, SON OF SHRI LAXMAN SAHANI, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE CHAKARIA, P.S. PIPRA, DISTRICT EAST CHAMPARAN Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 7. 05.08.2009 Learned counsel for the State has produced a letter of the learned Public Prosecutor, East Champaran at Motihari dated 3.7.2009 addressed to the Superintendent of Police, East Champaran, Motihari, copy whereof was forwarded to learned Additional Advocate General No. III for information to this Court. In the letter learned Public Prosecutor has stated that from perusing the records it appears that only one day i.e. on 18.4.2009 all the three accused persons were not produced from jail. However, after going through the letter it appears that on 19.3.2009 two accused were produced whereas one accused was not produced. On 18.4.2009 all the accused were not produced and again on 27.5.2009 two accused persons were produced and one accused was not produced. Thus, it appears that in absence of all the accused in Court, charge could not be framed. The letter shows that next date fixed for framing charge was 15.7.2009. It also appears that the - 2 - case was earlier committed to the Court of Session for trial. Therefore, it is directed to the Superintendent of Police, East Champaran at Motihari to ensure appearance of all the accused persons on each and every date in the case and the trial court is directed to frame charge, if not already framed, on the next date and proceed with the trial as expeditiously as possible and conclude the same preferably within a period of six months from the date of framing of charge. The application is disposed of with the above directions. B.T (J.N. Singh, J.)
