IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.30380 of 2008 NARAYAN YADAV, Son of Late Sahdeo Yadav @ Jagdeo Yadav, Resident of Village- Tartar, P.S.- Ghoshwari, District- Patna :--------Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR:-------Opposite Party ----------- For the Petitioner :Mr. Kamal Kumar Sinha, Advocate. For the Opposite Party : Mr. Nitya Nand Tiwari, A.P.P. ==== 3. 11.11.2008. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. Petitioner is an accused in a case under Sections 302 and 201 of the Penal Code. He is named in the First Information Report along with five others and is alleged to have killed the brother of the informant. In the circumstances, at this stage when he has remained absconding for over three years, I am not inclined to release him on bail. His prayer for bail is, accordingly, rejected but as he has remained in jail custody for over a year, the court below (Chief Judicial Magistrate, Munger) is directed to commit the case (Dharhara P.S.Case No. 114 ‘A’ of 2003) to the court of Sessions, if not already committed and thereafter the trial court should conclude the trial as early as possible, in any case within a period of nine months. Let this order be communicated to the court below through fax by the office of this Court for ensuring compliance. P.K.P. (V.N.Sinha,J.)
