IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.38604 of 2009 SATYENDRA PANDEY Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 9.12.2009 Heard. The petitioner’s grievance is that in spite of languishing in custody and in spite of the case of co-accused Brijesh Kumar Thakur running on trial, the case of the present petitioner still awaits being committed. It is really regrettable that the state of things appears so miserably, if it is true. I would request the District & Sessions Judge, Siwan to seek the records arising out of Basantpur P.S.Case No.82 of 2007 and look into the matter himself and ensure that the case of the present petitioner Satyendra Pandey is also committed to the court of Sessions preferably within a month of the receipt of the copy of the present order. After the case being committed, the separated trial be sent to the same court who could be trying the case of Brijesh Kumar Thakur and the trial Judge tag the records, frame the charge against the accused persons and recall the witnesses examined, if any, for being cross-examined by the present petitioner - 2 - Satyendra Pandey from which stage the trial of the two accused shall proceed simultaneously so that the trial concludes on one day by delivery of a composite judgement. As regards the prayer for bail, as discussed in my order dated 7.7.2008 passed in Cr.Misc.Petition No.12699, I am not inclined to direct the release of the above named petitioner on bail. Petition is dismissed. B.Kr. ( Dharnidhar Jha, J. )
