IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.16821 of 2009 1. MD.UMER S/O MD. ISLAMUDDIN 2. MD. LADDU S/O QUASIM BOTH R/O VILLAGE- KADWA, P.S.- RANIGANJ (ARARIA R.S), DISTRICT- ARARIA Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4 16/09/2009 Earlier prayer for bail of the petitioners was rejected by this court vide order dated 4.7.2008 passed in Cr. Misc. No. 12040 of 2008. Submission is that the petitioners are in custody since 1.12.2007 and there is no substantial progress in the trial. Report called for from the court below has been received. It appears from the court that the trial court is taking steps for procuring the attendance of the witnesses. Considering the facts and circumstances, I see no reason to take a different view from the earlier. Accordingly, prayer for bail of the petitioners is again rejected. However, the petitioners are at liberty to renew their prayer for bail before the court below after examination of the informant. avin (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
