IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.5821 of 2009 SHASHI PRABHAT @ SHASHI SEKHAR PRABHAKAR @ TUTU Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3 29.4.2009 KHAN Heard counsel for the petitioner and the State. The prayer for bail of the petitioner was earlier rejected by this court by order dated 28.5.2008, passed in Cr.Misc.No.16716 of 2008 with an observation that the learned court below will expedite the trial. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody since 22.3.2007 and the trial has not yet been started. It would appear from the report of the trial court that on 11.2.2009 a bailable warrant of arrest was issued for production of witnesses in the court. Having considered the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. His prayer for bail is rejected. However, he may renew his prayer for bail after five months if there is no substantial progress in the trial. (S.P.Singh,J)
