Public Prosecutor for the State assisted by learned counsel for the informant. Petitioner is in jail custody since 1.6.2009 in a case registered under section 302/34 of the IPC and 27 of the Arms Act. It would appear from perusal of the fardbeyan of the informant that the petitioner is the main assailant. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is in jail custody since the year 2009 but up till now his trial has not been concluded but learned counsel for the informant submits that almost all the prosecution witnesses have already been examined except the Investigating officer. In the aforesaid circumstances, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner in connection with Rani Talab P.S. Case no. 54/2009 corresponding to Sessions Trial no.393/2010 pending in the court of the Addl. Sessions Judge II, Danapur, District Patna stands rejected. However, Addl.
