IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.40560 of 2008 NATHUNI SAHANI, Son of Late Chhathu Sahani, Resident of Village- Hussepur, Dobandha, P.S.- Sahebganj, District- Muzaffarpur :--- Petitioner. Versus STATE OF BIHAR:----Opposite Party ----------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Rakesh Ranjan, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Ram Chandra Singh, A.P.P. ===== 4. 12.12.2008. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. Petitioner is an accused in a case under Sections 25 (1-B) A and 26 of the Arms Act as one country made pistol and two cartridges were recovered from him. He is in jail custody for about seven months but there appears to be 12 cases registered against him. In the circumstances, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail. His prayer for bail is, accordingly, rejected, however, considering his custody the trial court (Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate (West), Muzaffarpur) is directed to take up the trial (Sahebganj P.S.Case No. 60 of 2008) on priority basis and conclude the same as early as possible, in any case within six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order.
