IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.1768 of 2011 MD. KALIM Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3 20.04.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned counsel for the state. The petitioner has been made accused in connection with Khajekala P.S. Case No. 66 of 2010 registered under section-376(2)F of the Indian Penal Code. Allegedly, the petitioner established physical relation with a minor girl after alluring her. The contention of learned counsel for the petitioner is that the very face of the first information report reveals that the victim was a consenting party and so far as the age of the victim is concerned, the only rider which is being placed by the prosecution against the petitioner and moreover, the petitioner is in jail custody since 17.05.2010. Taking into consideration the above said submission as well as facts and circumstances of the case, I do not think it proper to release the petitioner on bail at least, at this stage. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner in connection with Khajekala P.S. Case No. 66 of 2010 corresponding to Sessions Trial No. 1487 of 2010 stands rejected. However, learned Ist Addl. Sessions Judge, Patna City - 2 - is directed to conclude the trial of the petitioner within nine months from the date of receipt of this order. It is made clear that if the trial of the petitioner is not concluded within the above-said period, the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail before the learned court below itself. Let this order be communicated to the court of Ist Addl. Sessions Judge, Patna City through fax at the cost of the petitioner. AKV/- (Hemant Kumar Srivastava,J.)
