IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.562 of 2010 ARVIND KUMAR SINGH, son of Late Nawal Kishore Singh resident of village- Karhekurha, Police Station- Paliganj, District- Patna. … Petitioner. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3. 01.10.2010 No one appears for the petitioner. The prayer of the petitioner was earlier rejected by order dated 1.9.2009 in Cr.Misc. No. 12414 of 2009 with an observation that the petitioner could renew his prayer for bail if the trial is not concluded within the reasonable period. From the report of court below on record dated 27.5.2010 it would appear that a prosecution witness had been examined last on 25.2.2010. There is, however, no averment in this bail application which is filed on 6.1.2010 as with regard to the present stage of trial. Considering all these aspects while the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected, this Court would still direct the trial court to ensure that the trial of the petitioner is concluded within a period of six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. In the event such trial is not concluded in the aforementioned period of six months, the petitioner will 2 have liberty initially to move the trial court for bail which then would be under obligation to record reasons for not concluding the trial within the aforementioned period, whereafter only the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail before this Court. With the aforementioned observation and direction, this application is dismissed. kanchan (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
