IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.3262 of 2009 BALIRAM MISHRA, son of Hem Narayan Mishra, resident of village- Gangauli, Police Station- Ziradei, District- Siwan. ----- Petitioner Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----- Opposite Party. ----------- 3 04.02.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing on behalf of the State. Petitioner’s bail application under Section 304 B and other Sections of the Indian Penal Code had been earlier rejected by this Court on 10.9.2007. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the charge has not been framed in this case and there is in-ordinate delay in commencing the trial specially in view of the fact that the petitioner has remained in custody for 2½ years. I accordingly direct that the trial should be expedited. If there is in-ordinate delay in taking up the trial, the petitioner may move this Court for bail. The bail application of the petitioner is dismissed. Sanjay (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
