IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.51290 of 2007 LALLAN SINGH @ YUDHISTHIR SINGH Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 6. 24.11.2010 On call none appeared on behalf of the petitioner either to press this petition or to make a prayer for adjournment. I have heard Mr. Ansarul Haque, learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing on behalf of the State. The petitioner, who is an accused in a case of kidnapping, has approached this Court with a prayer to quash an order dated 14.9.2006 passed in S. Tr. No. 199 of 2006 by the Additional Sessions Judge, F.T.C. III, Ara. By the said order the learned Trial Judge has rejected the petition filed under Section 227 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for his discharge. I have perused the materials available on record. After going through the impugned order, I am of the view that the learned Trial Judge has rightly rejected the discharge petition. The impugned order does not require any interference by this Court. Accordingly the petition stands rejected. In view of rejection of this petition interim 2 order of stay dated 2.2.2009 stand automatically vacated. Keeping in view the fact that the matter remained pending before this Court for a long time and there was also an order of stay, it is desirable to direct the Trial Court to proceed with the case expeditiously so that trial may come to its logical end without any further delay.
