IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.19135 of 2010 SK.SALIM @ SALMA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 27.05.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. Petitioner is named accused in the six years old case instituted on the basis of complaint case no.628 of 2004 carries allegation that the informant sent his 12 years old son alongwith the petitioner to his elder son at Merath where elder son of the complainant was residing, but inspite of lapse of several months, the boy did not reach there. On query, no such satisfactory reply was given; a complaint case was lodged on the basis whereof case was instituted. Police after investigation submitted charge-sheet. The Boy is traceless till date. He is in custody since 30.11.2009. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, for the present, I am not inclined to allow the prayer for bail. Hence, it is rejected. Simultaneously, the court below is directed to proceed expeditiously with the trial and if it is not concluded within one year of detention of the petitioner, he shall be at liberty to renew his prayer before the trial court itself.
