The petitioner seeks bail in connection with Goh P.S. Case No. 04 of 2021, instituted for the offences under Sections 304(B), 201, 120B and 34 of the Indian Penal Code. This is the second attempt of the petitioner to seek regular bail as earlier his bail application was rejected by order date 09.02.2022 in Criminal Miscellaneous No. 52304 of 2021. The learned Senior counsel for the petitioner very fairly submits that a clear pleading has been made at Para-16 of the bail application that all the prosecution witnesses have been examined, as such, the petitioner be enlarged on bail as now there is no chance of tampering with the prosecution evidence. The learned A.P.P. for the State opposes the bail

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.14242 of 2023(2) dt.29-03-2023 2/2 application and submits that since all the prosecution witnesses have already been examined, as such, the Court for the present should not release the petitioner on bail.

Considering the submission made by the learned A.P.P. for the State, the Court is not inclined to entertain the bail application.

Accordingly, the present bail application stands rejected.

However, the learned Trial Court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same within a period of one month from today, in the event, if what has been pleaded in the present bail application is true and there are no defence witnesses to be examined.
