IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.8034 of 2009 MUKESH PASWAN, Son of late Ashwani Paswan, Resident of Rani Bigha, P.S. – Tenari, District – Gaya. …… Petitioner. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR …… Opp. Party. ----------- 2. 25.3.2009 Heard Sri Binod Kumar, Advocate for the petitioner and Sri Dasrath Mehta, APP for the State. The earlier prayer for bail of the petitioner was dismissed twice by me vide orders passed in Cr. Misc. No. 33041 of 2007 and 18083 of 2008. The contention is that in spite of being in custody since 28.8.2006 the petitioner’s trial has not been concluded. The learned Additional Sessions Judge has mentioned that six witnesses have been examined and steps have been taken for production of the remaining witnesses. I direct the learned trial Judge to conclude the trial by 31st of July, 2009, else the petitioner could be free to move this court directly for bail. The petition is dismissed with the above direction. DKS/ (Dharnidhar Jha, J.)
