IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.15168 of 2011 Murari Yadav @ M. P., son of Ram Narayan Prasad, R/o Village Kharaona, P.S. Masaurhi, Dist. Patna. -------- Petitioner Versus The State of Bihar ------Opp. Party ----------- 3 28.09.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. No one appears for the State. The prayer of the petitioner for bail was earlier rejected by an order dated 26.11.2009 in Cr. Misc. No. 31260 of 2009 with a liberty to renew his prayer for bail after nine months from the framing of charge. Counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in custody since 10.12.2008 and that the charges against the petitioner were also framed on 14.5.2010 but, thereafter, not a single witness has been examined by the prosecution till date. Noticing the aforementioned submissions, this Court had called for a report from the trial court and from the said report dated 7.6.2011, it appears that the trial of the petitioner has made no headway. Thus, considering the fact that the petitioner has remained in jail custody for almost three years and the end of trial of the petitioner is nowhere in sight, this 2 Court would direct for release of the petitioner, namely, Murari Yadav @ M.P. on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Additional Sessions Judge, 1st, Danapur at Patna in connection with Danapur P.S. Case No. 84 of 2000, subject to the following conditions:- (i) The two bail bonds will be furnished, one by the Government servant and the other by a close family relative. (ii) The petitioner will remain present in course of trial on each and every day and his absence even for a single day would automatically entail the consequences of cancellation of his bail. (iii) The petitioner in case is now made accused in any other criminal case, that would itself lead to cancellation of his bail. Subject to the aforementioned conditions, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is allowed. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
