IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.22448 of 2010 SURESH MEHTA SON OF RAMESHWAR MEHTA RESIDENT OF VILLAGE MIRJAWA,P.S.TRIBENIGANJ,DISTT.SUPAUL Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR For the petitioner : Mr.Subhash Chandra Yadav For the State : Mr.R.P.S.Singh, Addl.P.P. ----------- O4/ 25.08.2010 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner seeks bail in Triveniganj P.S.Case No. 217 of 2008 (Sessions Trial No. 87 of 2009). Earlier the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected on 27.7.2009 by this Court Vide Cr.Misc.No. 9180 of 2009. Allegation against the petitioner is that he was found talking with the informant’s daughter and subsequently her dead body was found. Though the case was registered under Section 366(A)/34 of the Indian Penal Code but the trial is progressing under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code. Submission is that the petitioner is in custody for near about two years and there is no direct evidence against him. Called for report regarding stage of trial has been received. From the report it 2 appears that out of ten prosecution witnesses, four have been examined and the deposition of P.W.5 is going on. Steps for rest witnesses have been taken by the trial court. Considering the report of the trial Court, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is again rejected. Tahir/- ( Shyam Kishore Sharma, J. )
