IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.6834 of 2010 NAWAL YADAV, SON OF RAMSHARUP YADAV, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE TOFFIR (KARNI TOLA), POLICE STATION MUFFASIL, DISTRICT MUNGER. Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 10.3.2010. Heard Mr. Vikramdeo Singh, learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The petitioner is in custody in Muffasil P.S. Case No.271 of 2009 registered under Sections 399, 402 of the Indian Penal Code and 25(1-B)A/26/35 of the Arms Act corresponding to Sessions Trial No.748 of 2009. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that from the possession of this petitioner, only 12 live cartridges were recovered and petitioner is in jail since 10.11.2009. From the order, it appears that in this case, trial has already commenced and two witnesses have already been examined. Since trial has already commenced, it is not desirable to extend the privilege of bail to this petitioner. Accordingly, prayer for bail is rejected. However, keeping in view the fact that petitioner is in - 2 - N.H./ custody, it is necessary to direct the trial court to conclude the trial expeditiously and preferably within a period of six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. It is expected that defence will render full cooperation and defence may not linger the conclusion of the trial with a view to circumvent this order. If trial is not concluded within a period of six months, the petitioner would be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail. With above observation and direction, prayer for bail is rejected.
