IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.1730 of 2011 RAM PRAKASH PASWAN @ NETAJI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4 18.04.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State. Petitioner is languishing in jail custody in connection with Sessions Trial No.213 of 2010 arising out of Buxar (Town) P.S. Case No.84 of 84 of 2003. As per prosecution case, it is petitioner who committed the murder of the deceased by opening fire. The contention of learned counsel for the petitioner is that petitioner is languishing in jail custody since 22.5.2010, but up till now no prosecution witness has been examined. Taking into consideration the above stated fact as well as submission I do not feel it proper to extend the privilege of bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner stands rejected. However, it appears from perusal of report of learned 2 Additional Sessions Judge, 3rd, Buxar which is at Flag-X that the charge has already been framed against the petitioner and the case is pending for prosecution evidence. The learned Additional Sessions Judge, 3rd, Buxar is directed to expedite the trial of the petitioner and conclude the same preferably within one year from the date of receipt of this order. PN (Hemant Kumar Srivastava, J.)
