IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.3022 of 2009 RADHEY BIND, SON OF LATE AYODHYA BIND, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE-GUNSAGAR, POLICE STATION-HALSI, DISTRICT- LAKHISARAI………………………………………………PETITIONER. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR……………………………OPPOSITE PARTY. ----------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Kamal Kumar Sinha, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Abhimanyu Sharma, A.P.P. ------------- 3. 21.4.2009. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, Radhey Bind, one of the F.I.R. named accused of Halsi P.S. Case No.70 of 2008 registered under Sections 379, 411/34 I.P.C. and is in custody since 21.7.2008 in connection therewith. The petitioner was caught by the police with 20 kgs. of telephone cable wire for which he had no explanation. A report was called for from the court below regarding the status of the case and the report sent which is kept at flag ‘A’ discloses that the charges have been framed against the petitioner on 25.3.2009. As has been rightly held by the Sessions Court that theft of cable wire has become social crime as it causes great inconvenience to the persons with telephone connections. While endorsing the view expressed, I do not find any compelling reason to enlarge the petitioner on bail. The prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected. The trial court is directed to conclude the trial as expeditiously as possible preferably within six months from the date of receipt of copy of this order. If the trial is not concluded by the stipulated time, the petitioner shall be - 2 - at liberty to move for fresh bail before the trial court provided the delay is not caused due to the non cooperation of the accused persons. P.S. (Abhijit Sinha,J)
