IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.32683 of 2009 RAJIB RANJAN SINGH @ RAJU SINGH, son of late Rameshwar Narayan Singh, resident of village/ Mohalla Majaraja Hata, Arrah Nawada, District Arrah (Bhojpur) Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 16.9.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and the counsel for the State. Considering the nature of allegation against the petitioner as also background in which sessions trial has been transferred from Arrah to Patna and further the delaying tactics adopted by the petitioner himself in not allowing the prosecution to proceed further in conclusion of the trial, this Court would be absolutely loath to even consider much less grant bail to the petitioner. In the event the petitioner co- operates with the trial, the trial court is directed to ensure that the trial of the petitioner is concluded within a period of nine months from today but if such delaying tactics as has been noted in the impugned order continues only at the instance of the petitioner, the delay in concluding the trial will not be to the benefit of the 2 petitioner. With the aforementioned observations, this application is dismissed. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
