IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.10353 of 2010 1. NARAD MANDAL, S/o Late Bhola Mandal. 2. Mangal Mandal, S/o Fulchand Mandal. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02. 01.04.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the State. The petitioners seek bail in a case instituted for the offences under Sections 341, 323, 307 and 504/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 3/4 of Witch Craft Act and later on Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code was added. Taking into consideration the fact that there is direct allegation against the petitioners and co- accused of having assaulted the deceased and the trial is in progress, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners. The prayer for bail is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite the trial so as to conclude it within a reasonable time. Vikash/- (Anjana Prakash, J.)
