The petitioner wants to renew the prayer of bail which was earlier twice rejected vide orders dated 16.05.2017 and 18.10.2017 passed in Cri. Misc. No. 18732 of 2017 and Cr. Misc. No. 50853 of 2017, on the ground that the petitioner is suffering in custody since 20.11.2016, during investigation the story of demanding ransom has not been found true and the post mortem report does not support the prosecution version. The trial has not been concluded within the time granted by this Court and, as such, the petitioner deserves sympathetic consideration.

The learned A.P.P. opposes the prayer of bail by

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.30122 of 2018(2) dt.16-05-2018 2/2 submitting that trial is in progress.

In the facts and circumstances stated above, at present, finding no good ground for reconsideration of prayer of the bail, again prayer of the bail of the petitioner stands rejected in connection with Sessions Trail No. 581 of 2017, arising out of Bihta P.S. Case No. 324 of 2015 pending in the court of learned A.D.J.-VI, Danapur.

However, the learned trail Court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same as early as possible preferably within four months, from date of receipt/production of a copy of this order after taking the same on priority basis. (Jitendra Mohan Sharma, J.) Rajiv/- U T
