IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr. Misc. No.5560 of 2010 VIJAY SINGH @ VIJAY YADAV @ USMAN, S/O LATE MOHAN SINGH Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR **** /2/ 15.02.2010 Heard both the sides. 2. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted under Sections 302 and 201/34 of the Indian Penal Code and 27 of the Arms Act. 3. It is only recently, on 17.08.2009, the petitioner has been refused bail on merits. Unfortunately the petitioner has renewed his prayer for bail even though there is absolutely no merit in the case. Undoubtedly, the case is of the year 1997 wherein the petitioner was named in the first information report and he has been remanded to custody after eleven years of the occurrence in November, 2008, this is itself enough to refuse bail to the petitioner. 4. The prayer for bail is rejected. 5. The trial Court is directed to expedite the trial in view of the fact that the case is of the year 1997 and the petitioner is in custody. It is made clear that delay in trial is not going to affect any further application for bail. S.A. (Anjana Prakash, J.)
