No.1412 of 2009 RAJU SAH SON OF SHIBU SAH RESIDENT OF BASANT BAGH,NAYA TOLA,P.S.SADAR,DISTRICT PURNEA Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4/ 27.7.2009 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner is one of the named accused of Sadar P.S.Case No. 385 of 2007 (Sessions Trial No. 254 of 2008) which has been registered for offence under Section 364 of the Indian Penal Code in which allegation is that the petitioner and his associates kidnapped informant’s daughter Kanchan Kumari aged 8 years. The kidnapped girl has not yet been traced out. From the report of the trial court it appears that out of 10 prosecution witnesses, 8 have already been examined and steps have been taken for appearance of the rest witnesses. Considering the stage of trial, presently I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected. However, the trial court is directed to conclude the trial as soon as possible. Tahir/- ( Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
