IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Criminal Miscellaneous No.38000 of 2011 Ashok Singh s/o Sukh Ram Singh, resident of village- Madhurapur, Purwari Tola, P.S. Teghra, District- Begusarai, presently residing at Kadirchak, P.S. Fulwaria, District- Begusarai. Versus The State Of Bihar ---------------------------------- 2 7.12.2011 Earlier thrice the prayer for bail of the petitioner was rejected by this Court The petitioner is an accused of shooting a Mukhiya in broad day light. He had been absconding for almost nine years. This Court had observed for expediting the trial and concluding the same at an early date. It appears from the order sheet of the trial court that the prosecution examined eight witnesses. The defence also examined three witnesses. At this stage one of the co accused could not be produced as he was remanded in an another case. The case is pending production of the other co accused i.e. Uma Singh. In my view, the trial Court should take all steps for the production of Uma Singh and conclude the trial within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order in the trial Court. In case the trial is not concluded within three months, after recording the detailed reasons for the same, which should not be attributable to the petitioner or the other co accused, the above named petitioner would be released on bail on furnishing bail bond of Rs. 10,000/- (ten thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of Vth Additional Sessions Judge, Begusarai in Sessions Trial no. 300 of 1999, subject to the 2 condition that he would be physically present on each and every date fixed in the Court and if on any two consecutive dates he is absent, his bail would be cancelled. Let a copy of this order be communicated to the Court concerned at the cost of the petitioner. Singh ( Navaniti Prasad Singh, J.)
