Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR …..Opposite Party. For the Petitioner : Mr. Chandra Mohan Jha (Adv.) For the State : Mr. M. Dayal (APP). ----------- 03/ 28.04.2010 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Counsel for the State. The prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected earlier considering the fact that co-accused Pintu Rai @ Pintu Kumar Rai has been refused bail by this Court. The situation remains same. The co- accused Pintu Rai @ Pintu Kumar Rai has again been refused bail. There is no change in the circumstances. A report has been called for and from the report it appears that the case is pending for production of this petitioner and Pintu Rai @ Pintu Kumar Rai from the jail. The petitioner is in custody since 06.08.2007. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant bail to the above named petitioner. 2 Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected. However, considering the period of detention of the petitioner the trial court is directed to expedite the trial. If the trial will not concluded within one year from today then the petitioner shall be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail in the court below. kksinha/ (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
