1. Mukhtar Sah @ Mokhtar Sah @ Muktar Sah Son of Late Bhola Sah Resident of Village- Bada Bariyarpur, P.S. Chhatauni, District- East Champaran.

.... .... Petitioner/s

Versus

1. The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party/s ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Umesh Chandra Verma For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Sri Sakir Ahmad ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE BIRENDRA KUMAR ORAL ORDER 30-06-2017 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP for the State.

Petitioner seeks bail in a case registered for the offences punishable under Sections 341, 323, 324, 307 and 379 of the Indian Penal Code.

Allegation against the petitioner is that he caused injury to Ranjeet Kumar Sah with dagger.

The Doctor has found three injuries on the person of Ranjeet Kumar Sah. Injury No. 1 is stabbed at the epigastrium region of 5"x1". One more sharp cut injury is at the middle side of the left arm. On dissection, cut injury over right lobe of liver and collection of blood in stomach is found.

Submission of the learned counsel for the

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.17813 of 2017 (4) dt.30-06-2017 2/2 petitioner is that the petitioner is in custody since 25.01.2017 and he has got no criminal antecedent.

Considering the fact that besides the informant who has supported the allegation as an eye-witness, the injured has also supported the allegation against the petitioner before the police, hence, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail for the present in connection with Chhatauni Police Station Case No. 20 of 2016 pending in the court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, East Champaran at Motihari.

Accordingly, prayer for bail is refused.

Let the learned trial court expedite the trial and conclude the same preferably within a period of nine months, failing which the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail before the court below and shall dispose of the same in accordance with law.
