The petitioner wants to renew his prayer of bail which was earlier rejected vide Criminal Misc.

Other co-accused persons have been allowed bail. Besides recovery of one S.I.M., there is no legal and tangible material against the petitioner and, as such, the petitioner deserves sympathetic consideration.

The learned A.P.P. opposes the prayer of bail by submitting that case of the petitioner is on different footing as on

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.19226 of 2017 (2) dt.10-05-2017 2/2 the basis of his confessional statement S.I.M. of mobile of the deceased was recovered from his possession.

In the facts and circumstances stated above, finding no good ground for reconsideration of prayer of bail, again prayer of bail of the petitioner stands rejected.

However, the trial court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same within four months from the date of receipt of production of a copy of this order, failing which the petitioner may be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail. (Jitendra Mohan Sharma, J) sushma/- U T
