IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.29664 of 2010 RAJESH KUMAR @ BHUKHU @ Makku, Son of Ram Krit Rai, R/o Bidhipur Bhoj Raj Asthan, P.s. Bakhtiyarpur, District Patna …… Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR …. Opposite Party ----------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Manoj Kumar Pandey, Advocate For the State : Mrs. Indu Bala Pandey, A.P.P. ------ 4 22.09.2010 An affidavit has been filed on behalf of the Sr. Superintendent of Police, Patna. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. Petitioner’s prayer for bail has earlier been rejected vide order dated 4.8.2008 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 20152 of 2008 as well as vide order dated 11.11.2009 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 23217 of 2009 as contained in Annexures 1 and 1/1. Learned counsel submits that there is no recovery of any fire-arm from the possession of the petitioner and he has been falsely implicated due to family feud. However, while rejecting the prayer of the petitioner on earlier two occasions, this Court had taken into consideration the aforementioned facts. No fresh ground are forthcoming for grant of bail. 2 Having considered the allegation of firing against the petitioner from point blank range causing death of the deceased is attributed, this Court did not incline to grant bail to the petitioner. This application is being rejected. However, the trial court was directed to take every possible step for disposal of the concerned trial vide order dated 11.11.2009. I have perused the reports of the trial court kept at Falg “A” and it appears therefrom that the prosecution witnesses are not being examined. An affidavit has been filed on behalf of the Sr. Superintendent of Police in this regard stating therein that action has been taken for producing the witnesses before the Court and some of them have already been produced. In above view of the matter, Sr. S.P., Patna, is expected to continue to make his endevour for producing the prosecution witnesses on the date fixed by the trial court. The trial court is also expected to take every steps for expeditious disposal of the trial preferably within nine months. Spd/- (Dr. Ravi Ranjan, J.)
