IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr Misc No 6028 of 2010 Ashok Singh, son of Sukhram Singh, resident of Village – Madhurapur (Purbari Tola) P S – Teghra, District – Begusarai - Petitioner Versus State of Bihar - Opposite Party ----------- 2 03.03.2010 The petitioner’s earlier bail application was rejected by this Court in Cr Misc No 16108 of 2009 by order dated 18.05.2009. Petitioner is in custody since 13.01.2009 in Phulwaria Police Station Case No 85 of 1998 and is chargesheeted under Sections 302/34 of Indian Penal Code read with Section 27 of the Arms Act. It is stated that after petitioner’s arrest, charges have now been framed in the case in December, 2009. In my view, as charges already having been framed and the case being more than 10 years old and pending before the Fast Track Court No II Begusarai, it is only expected that he would take all effective steps to expedite the trial. If the trial is not concluded within six months from today, the petitioner would be at liberty to move an application before the trial Court who would consider the same on its own merit and dispose it of in accordance with law. With these observations, the application stands disposed of. M.E.H./ (Navaniti Prasad Singh)
