IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.4135 of 2010 JAI PRAKASH RAI @ J.P.RAI @ J.P.YADAV SON OF RAMJEE PRASAD YADAV, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE- DANAPUR TARA CHAK, P.S.- DANAPUR, DISTRICT- PATNA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR with Cr.Misc. No.11524 of 2010 RAMESH KUMAR GUPTA @ RAMESH GUPTA @ RAMESH KUMAR SON OF SRI RAM GOPAL SAO, R/O SULTANPUR (KOIRI TOLA), P.S.- DANAPUR, DISTRICT- PATNA Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 4 19/05/2010 Above noted applications arising out of one occurrence which led to registration of Danapur P.S. Case No. 537 of 2004 have been heard together and are being disposed of by this common order. Earlier prayer for bail of the petitioners was rejected thrice by this Court. The petitioners are accused of a case registered under Section 302 and some other Sections of the Indian Penal Code. As per the allegation the petitioners have also contributed in killing of two persons. Submission is that the trial is not progressing and only five witnesses have been examined though the petitioners are in custody since five years. It has also been submitted that the informant and his friends are not the witness of the occurrence because the informant stated that he fell down after the assault and so he might have not seen the occurrence. 2 In the occurrence two persons were shot dead and according to the allegation, the petitioners have also contributed in assault of the deceased. Considering the aforesaid fact, presently, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioners on bail. Accordingly, their prayer for bail is rejected. However, trial court is directed to expedite the trial and the petitioners are at liberty to renew their prayer for bail before the learned trial court if the trial is not concluded within one year from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. avin (Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
