IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.30083 of 2010 Bipin Kumar Gupta, son of late Laxmi Narayan Sah, resident of Village Bari Pahari, Mansur Nagar, Police Station Sohsarai, District Nalanda. ------- Petitioner Versus State of Bihar -------- Opp. Party ----------- 2 07.10.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The prayer for bail of the petitioner was earlier rejected by an order dated 7.10.2009 in Cr. Misc. No. 33530 of 2009 with an observation that the petitioner’s trial should be concluded within a period of six months. The petitioner, thereafter, had again moved the court below and the court below by an order dated 2.8.2010 has recorded that when the petitioner was granted provisional bail for 21 days and was released on provisional bail on 19.1.2010, he did not surrender on 9.2.2010. The order would further go to show that the petitioner, in fact, surrendered after five months i.e. on 8.7.2010. In that view of the matter, the period of trial as fixed by this court had automatically got extended and, therefore, 2 the earlier time limit given for concluding the trial, could not be strictly adhered to. Considering all these aspects of the matter, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner, namely, Bipin Kumar Gupta but, then, if the petitioner now does not adopt the same attitude, the trial court must make its endeavor to conclude the trial within a period of four months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. With the aforementioned observation and direction, this application is disposed of. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
