04-03-2015 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri Rajendra Prasad Nat, learned Addl. Public Prosecutor. The petitioner, who is in custody in Saur Bazar P. S. Case No. 289 of 2014 registered for the offence under Section 392 of the Indian Penal Code, has prayed for grant of bail. It was submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that F.I.R. was lodged against unknown and petitioner's name has transpired on the statement of father of the co-accused, from whose possession looted motorcycle was recovered. He submits that even motorcycle was not recovered from the possession of the petitioner. He further submits that the petitioner is in custody since 18-07-2014. It was fairly stated by learned counsel for the petitioner that in this case, charge has already been framed.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.49423 of 2014 (2) dt.04-03-2015 2/2 Learned Addl. Public Prosecutor has opposed the prayer for bail. He submits that it was a case of road robbery and the petitioner is also having criminal antecedent. Keeping in view the nature of accusation, the Court is not inclined to extend the privilege of bail. The petition stands dismissed.

However, while dismissing the bail petition, keeping in view the fact that the petitioner is in custody, it is desirable to observe that learned trial court may take appropriate steps so that trial may come to its logical end without unnecessary delay, preferably within a period of nine months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order.
