IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.31012 of 2009 SURENDRA SINGH Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 27.10.2009 Heard. The petitioner approached this Court four times for bail and all the time they were rejected. I do not find any merit in this application and, accordingly, the prayer for bail is rejected. The Court is happy to note that the trial court has fixed a time frame to conclude the trial within six months and he has proceeded in a very positive manner as per provision of law as also direction of the Apex Court. However, the trial court shall consider the provision of Section 309 Cr.P.C. in case of non-production of the witnesses and in that case exemplary cost should be imposed for seeking unnecessary adjournments on frivolous grounds which should be deducted from the salary of the Police officers concerned by directing the Supdt. of Police concerned for deducting the cost amount from the salary of the Police officers for non-production of the witnesses which should be deposited in Nazarat.
