IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Criminal Miscellaneous No.10466 of 2011 Mahendra Mahto Versus The State of Bihar -------------- 03. 20.09.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner seeks bail in a case instituted for the offences under Section 302/34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 27 of the Arms Act. The petitioner was refused bail by order dated 19.08.2009 and once again on 06.07.2010 since he was the main accused. The petitioner has renewed his prayer for bail on the ground that he is in custody since more than last four years and the trial was not proceeding satisfactory. A report was called for from the Trial Court and it has reported that initially there was some difficulty in sitting of the Court since it was newly created Court but once the case was brought on track the trial was held on a day to day basis and all the private witnesses have been examined who have fully supported the case of the prosecution. As per the Trial Court report only the Investigating Officer and the Doctor are left to be examined. I must commend on the personal effort of the Trial Court in ensuring attendance of the witnesses. I 2 hope he will continue to work in the same manner with such attention. In view of the Trial Court Report, I am not inclined to review the earlier orders. The prayer for bail is once again rejected. In the meanwhile, the Trial Court is directed to send a list of the remaining witnesses fixing specific dates to the S.P. concerned along with the copy of this order who will ensure the attendance of the witnesses on the said dates so that there is no further delay in trial.
