Petitioner is an accused in a case under Sections 302/498A of the Penal Code and is the only accused named in the First Information Report and happens to be the husband of the deceased who died in her matrimonial house. From the post mortem report it appears that the cause of death is of Dabia blow. Petitioner is not able to explain the manner in which such injury was suffered by the deceased. In the circumstances, this application is rejected. However, considering the fact that petitioner is in jail custody for about three and half years and the trial is already in progress as by now five witnesses were examined, trial court(A.D.J., F.T.C.-I, Katihar) is directed to examine the remaining charge sheet witnesses as early as possible, in any case, within another six months and the trial(S.T. No. 596 of 2007 arising out of Katihar town P.S. Case No. 239 of 2005) be concluded thereafter. Rajesh/ (V.N.Sinha,J.)
