IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.55134 of 2007 SATENDRA RAJBHAR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 9. 03/12/2008 Earlier bail application of the petitioner was rejected by this Court by order dated 1.6.2007 with liberty to the petitioner to renew his prayer for bail after six months. As the trial has not concluded, petitioner has preferred this bail application. A report was called for from the trial court. From the report it transpired that the evidence in the case had already been closed and the case was fixed for argument but the defence side filed a petition for recall of the victim girl and hence the victim girl has been summoned and it is stated that she will be examined on the date fixed in the case. It is stated that 17.12.2008 has been fixed for examination of the victim girl and on that day evidence is likely to be closed and the case is likely to be fixed for arguments finally. In the report, the trial court has expressed that the defence side has adopted lingering tactics to obtain bail from this Court. - 2 - Since the trial is on the verge of conclusion, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. This application is rejected. Let the trial be concluded positively within two months from the date of re-examination of the victim girl. Pradeep/ (J. N. Singh, J.)
