IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.41802 of 2009 RITESH KUMAR, son of Ramjee Ram, resident of Village Sansarpur, P.S. Khagaria (Muffasil), District Khagaria. ----Petitioner Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 25.11.2009 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. This application is for grant of bail, which was earlier rejected vide order dated 5.2.2009 passed in Cr.Misc. No.49091 of 2008, relating to the offence under section 366A/34 of the Indian Penal Code. It is submitted that although the trial has proceeded and ten witnesses have been examined and thereafter the prosecution has filed an application for modification of the charge and as such, according to the petitioner, conclusion of the trial shall be delayed much. Learned counsel for the State submits that the trial of the petitioner is going on and a large number of witnesses have been examined and, as such, the petitioner is not entitled to be enlarged on bail. Considering the submissions of the parties, I am not inclined to allow this application. The same is, accordingly, rejected. However, the trial court shall expedite the trial.
