DATED: 10th April 2008. DATED: 10th April 2008. DATED: 10th April 2008. P.C.: P.C.: P.C.: ---- ---- ---- . Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.P.P. for the State. 2. The earlier application moved by the applicant was already rejected by this Court vide order dated 1st November, 2007. Now, the second application is moved on two grounds. 3. Firstly, the applicant is in custody since more than nine months and the trial has not yet been commenced. Reliance is placed on the Apex Court judgment in the case of Mehmood Mohammed Sayeed v. Mehmood Mohammed Sayeed v. Mehmood Mohammed Sayeed v. State of Maharashtra State of Maharashtra State of Maharashtra, (2002) 10 SCC 677. The second ground is that the applicant is not keeping good health and, therefore, he be released on medical ground. 4. So far as first ground is concerned, the judgment of the Apex Court is of year 2001. That time trials used to take years. Now, in the year 2008, Fast Track Courts are working and trying to dispose of sessions trials with expeditious despatch. In the year 2001, the scenario was altogether different as such the applicant is not entitled to bail on the ground pressed into service. 5. So far as second ground pressed into service by the applicant is concerned, learned A.P.P. has produced health report of the Medical Officer, Kalyan Prison, Kalyan dated 24th February, 2008; wherein the general condition of the applicant- accused is certified to be sound and good. He has further mentioned in the said report that the applicant- accused was also examined by the Surgeon in the Central Hospital, Ulhasnagar and was diagnosised for acid peptic disease acid and that the applicant is being given treatment for the concerned disease. The learned counsel could not dispute or make any complaint about the medical report in question. In my considered view, the applicant is not entitled to bail on any of these grounds. 6. No other grounds other than the above two grounds were pressed into service. The application is, thus, rejected. 7. Needless to mention that the trial of the applicant- accused be treated as expedited one. JUDGE JUDGE JUDGE
