Versus STATE OF BIHAR With Cr.Misc. No.21302 of 2009 SUNIL PASWAN @ SUNIL NAGAR, Son of Mahendra Paswan, resident of Village-Gadhdevi, Police Station-Gadhawa, District-Gadhawa (Jharkhand). Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4 17/9/2009 Heard counsel for the petitioners and counsel for the State. Considering nature of allegation in an offence under section 392 of the Indian Penal Code and the fact that the petitioners have criminal antecedents, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioners for the present. It, however, appears that Surendra Sah (petitioner in Cr. Misc. No. 26181/2009) is in custody since 5.7.2007 and Sunil Paswan @ Sunil Nagar (peititoner in Cr. Misc. No.21302/2009) is in custody since 25.10.2008 respectively. They are already facing the trial and the trial is also going on. That being so, this Court would direct the trial court to ensure that trial of the petitioners is concluded as early as possible preferably within a period of nine months from today. With the aforementioned observations/directions these two applications are dismissed. Abhay Kumar (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
