IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.37375 of 2008 RANJIT SINGH @ RANJEET SINGH Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3/ 22.9.2008 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner has been described as sole assailant of the deceased who was the informant of the case. So the name of the petitioner finds in the dying declaration of the deceased. Submission is that the trial is not progressing. Earlier the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected on 28.8.1986 and while rejecting the prayer, it was noted that only one witness has been examined. Similar is the position even today. No other witness has been examined. Considering the allegation, I am not inclined to reconsider the prayer for bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is again rejected. However, the trial court is directed to expedite the trial considering the fact that the petitioner is in jail custody since 22.7.2003. Tahir/- ( Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
