IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. WJC No.209 of 1998 1. SMT. CHINTA DEVI 2. DOLLY KUMARI @ RINKU 3. BIRENDRA PRASAD SINNGH 4. DHIRENDRA KUMAR SINGH 5. RAJESH KUMAR SINGH 6. NIRMAL KUMAR SINGH 7. NILAM KUMARI Versus STATE OF BIHAR & HEMLATA SINHA. ----------- 5 08.07.2010. Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioners have come to this Court for quashing order dated 10.4.1997, passed by Addl. Chief Judicial Magistrate, Danapur, in Danapur Police Station case no. 142 of 1996 lodged u/s 498A/34 I.P.C. and ¾ of Dowry Prohibition Act, cancelling the bail granted to him, and order dated 31.3.1998, passed by the Addl. Sessions Judge VI, Patna in Cr. Rev. No. 157 of 1997, dismissing the same as not maintainable. It appears that this Court vide order dated 23.4.1998 stayed operation of order impugned, whereas the case of petitioner nos. 3 and 5 was dismissed. Counter affidavit has been filed by the informant opposing the writ petition. As the impugned order is 12 years old and there is nothing on record to throw light on the present status of trial, it would not be appropriate to recall the said order. In the result, the impugned order of the two courts cancelling the bail are set aside. This court further observes that if the trial has not concluded till date, the court in seisin of the matter would conclude the same - 2 - positively within three months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. Petitioners would co-operate in the trial. Let this order be communicated to the court of Addl. Chief Judicial Magistrate, Danapur through FAX at the cost of the petitioners. Shashi.
