Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR …. Opposite Party. ----------- 3 30-06-2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. Petitioner has renewed prayer for bail in a case instituted under Section 304B of the Indian Penal Code in view of the liberty so granted to him by order dated 24-08-2009 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 27994 of 2009(Annexure-1). Status report was called for which has been received and is placed at flag “X”. It appears therefrom that four witnesses on behalf of the prosecution have already been examined, who are said to have supported the prosecution case. The trial court has observed that the case is likely to be disposed of very soon. Petitioner is husband and seems to be in custody since 22.7.2008. On a consideration of the material on record, this court while refusing the prayer for bail disposes of the application in the following manner: Let the trial court endeavour to examine all the remaining prosecution witnesses within four months from the date of receipt/communication of the order failing which trial court, in case of filing an application for bail, shall release the petitioner on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- with two sureties of the like amount ; subject to the conditions that (i) one of the bailors shall 2 be his own close family members; (ii) the petitioner shall appear in person on the date fixed at the trial. In case of default in such appearance on two consecutive dates the trial court shall have liberty to cancel the bail bond of the petitioner and secure his arrest in accordance with law. With this direction/observation, the application is disposed of. Sujit (Kishore K.Mandal, J)
