Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR …..Opposite Party. For the Petitioner : Mr. Sanjeev Kumar-I (Advocate). For the State : APP. ----------- 03/ 12.01.2011 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case which has been registered under Sections 147, 148, 149, 341, 324, 307 and 302 of the Indian Penal Code in connection with Sessions Trial NO. 109 of 2006 arising out of Jogapatti P.S. Case No 177 of 2005. Earlier prayer for bail has been rejected on various occasions. The prayer has been renewed on the ground of delay in trial. Considering the allegation that the petitioner is assailant of the deceased, I am not inclined to grant bail to the above named petitioner. Accordingly, his prayer for bail is rejected. Considering the fact that the petitioner is in custody since 12.09.2005, the trial court is directed to expedite the 2 conclusion of the trial. If the trial is not concluded within one and half years then the petitioner shall be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail before the court below. kksinha/- (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
