The petitioner seeks bail in Saksohra P.S.Case No. 6 of 2008 (Sessions Trial No. 2390 of 2008). Earlier the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected on 30.4.2009 vide Cr.Misc.No. 6348 of 2009 considering the fact that he is husband of the deceased of a case registered for offence under Section 304(B) of the Indian Penal Code. By order dated 18.11.2009 a report regarding stage of trial was called for which has been received. From the report dated 19.12.2009 it appears that up till now charges have not been framed. At present, I am not inclined to reconsider the prayer for bail of the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite the trial and if the trial is not concluded within one year, the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail before the court below.
