IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.13538 of 2009 SATYENDRA RAY Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 03/ 29.07.2009 Heard Sri Tarakant Jha, learned Senior counsel for the petitioner and Sri Dasrath Mehta, APP for the State. The allegation against the petitioner is that he had entrusted 11 kg. of Ganja to two persons Satendra Kumar Yadav and Birendra Rai for carrying it to a particular destination with a cellular phone, which fact was revealed by arrested accused Satendra Kumar Yadav, from whose recovery of the contraband was made. Satendra Kumar Yadav has been admitted to bail along with Birendra Rai. The fact of granting bail to Satendra Kumar Yadav was noticed by me while passing the earlier rejection of this petitioner. Considering the nature of the evidence, I am not inclined presently to direct the release of the petitioner. The petition is dismissed. However, if the trial of the petitioner has not been concluded within further period of nine months - 2 - from the date of receipt/production of a copy of the present case, petitioner may renew his prayer for bail. DKS/ (Dharnidhar Jha, J.)
