For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Pankaj Kumar Sinha For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Sri Rajendra Singh Shastriji ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 13-11-2017 Heard the parties.

This application is for grant of regular bail in connection with Jhajha P.S.Case No.132 of 2014 (G.R.No.1245 of 2014) for the offences punishable under Sections 379/511 of the Indian Penal Code.

Allegation against the petitioner is of committing theft of the petroleum product, which was passing through the gas pipeline.

Submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that he is not named in the FIR and later on his name transpired in this case and though he is accused in other cases also but he is on bail in those case. The petitioner is in custody for seven

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.51057 of 2017 (2) dt.13-11-2017 2/2 months.

Heard learned A.P.P. and the learned counsel for the I.O.C. They have opposed the prayer for bail on the ground that he is accused in 12 other cases also but only 07 cases have been mentioned in para 3 of the petitioner and details of the other cases have been made.

Having heard both sides and in view of fact that the petitioner has not stated about all the cases in which he is accused, as such, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner, however, the learned trial court is directed to expedite the trial and try to conclude it within a period of six months and if not concluded, the learned trial court shall release the petitioner on bail to his own satisfaction.

With the aforesaid observation, this application is dismissed.
