IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.32053 of 2008 PARSURAM YADAV & ANR Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 22.08.2008 Heard. The Addl. Sessions Judge, Bagaha while dismissing the prayer for bail of the petitioner on 16.2.2006 was making a record that at best two month’s time could be taken for finally disposing of the above noted Sessions Trial. The contention is that we are in August, 2008, more than two years ahead of that particular date and the trial is still at the stage where it was standing on 16.2.2006. The Court does not have anything before it to evaluate the contention as also to derive a conclusion as regards the impediments in winding up the trial. Let the petitioner move the learned Addl. Sessions Judge, Bagaha for bail and the Court expects the learned Judge to record the impediment and the reasons as to why the trial could not be concluded within a period of over two years from 16.2.2006 till he passes the order and how many more months the Court may be requiring for itself to conclude the Trial. This Court is also interested in knowing as to what developments have been made in the trial after - 2 - 16.2.2006 specially when it knows that the petitioner is in custody since last more than five years. The petition is dismissed with the above observation and direction. pkj (Dharnidhar Jha, J)
