Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 2/9/2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The petitioner is in custody in connection with an offence under section 394 of the Indian Penal Code and has been sought to be identified by the informant himself with the help of appearance about which details were given in the First Information Report. Considering the aforementioned facts, this Court is not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected. From the order sheet of the court below refusing bail to the petitioner it appears that the trial is in progress. As the petitioner seems to be only accused in this case who is in custody, this Court directs the court below (Trial Court) to ensure that trial of the petitioner is concluded within a period of nine months from today. In the event, such trial would not be concluded within the period as aforesaid the petitioner will have liberty to initially move the trial court and the court below will be under obligation to 2 record reasons for not concluding the trial within the time framed by this Court and only thereafter the petitioner shall be at liberty to move this Court.
