IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.25555 of 2008 NARAYAN YADAV Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 3 25.09.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State. Petitioner is an accused in connection with Hasanpur P.S. Case No. 57 of 1998 for offence under sections 452, 363, 365, 368, 369 and 349 of the Indian Penal Code. The primary reason why this court is not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail is that he has been forced to surrender after almost 10 years which has delayed the trial against him. Enlarging the petitioner on bail at this stage will only mean that the trial of the case would never be concluded. The bail application of the petitioner is rejected with a direction to the court below to expedite the trial of the case. Rajeev/ (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
