Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.5869 of 2024(2) dt.17-02-2024 2/2 5.

Considering the brutal killing of the deceased by the accused persons including the petitioner, I am not inclined to grant the petitioner privilege of regular bail. Accordingly, this bail application is rejected. The trial court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same as early as possible.
