IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.30581 of 2010 RAGHUBANSH RAY @ REGHU WANSH RAI Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 03. 20.09.2010 Petitioner is languishing in custody in a case registered under Sections 302/201 of the I.P.C. It is alleged that petitioner being grand father of the victim had illicit relationship with the mother of the victim. It is also alleged that the victim and her mother used to stay with this petitioner. The impugned order reflects that out of 16 witnesses 9 witnesses have already been examined. Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, in view of the fact that trial is at advance stage, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at present. The application for grant of bail to the petitioner stands rejected. Let the Trial Court expedite the trial and conclude the same within a period of 9 months. Shageer ( Dinesh Kumar Singh, J.)
