IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.14508 of 2009 LAL BABU PANDIT Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 29.7.2009 Heard Sri Dhirendra Kumar Sinha, learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned A.P.P. for the State. The petition is by way of renewing the prayer for bail which was earlier dismissed by this court on three different occasions as appear from the list containing the details of three petitions earlier preferred by the petitioner before this court. The petitioner appears further approaching Apex Court through S.L.P.(CRL.)No.11725 of 2008 which was disposed of by order dated 28.7.2008 by directing the expeditious hearing of the trial preferring within six months from the communication of the order. The contention is that it is true that the learned trial Judge in his rejection order dated 20th of March, 2009 stated that the charges had not been framed by that date. However, the fact is that after framing of charges as many as seven witnesses have been examined by the learned trial Judge out of which P.W.6, one of - 2 - the police officers, investigating the case has supported the story, else the others have gone hostile so much so that the witnesses to search and seizure have also not chosen to support the charges. This could be a matter of appreciation by the trial court as regards value of evidence of different witnesses. The allegation against the petitioner is that he was found storing 11.2 K.G. of ganja with some machine meant for packing the contraband articles from a room which the petitioner had tenanted. The allegation on the fact of it is serious. The trial is also about to be concluded, considering which the petition is dismissed. B.Kr. ( Dharnidhar Jha, J. )
