Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.23703 of 2020(4) dt.09-11-2020 2/2 petition.

Considering the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected in connection with Buxar Town P.S. Case No. 400/2016 pending in the Court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Buxar, DistrictBuxar. The trial court is directed to conclude the trial as expeditiously as possible preferably within a period of six months from today and both the parties are directed to extend their full cooperation in early conclusion of the trial. If the trial is not concluded within the stipulated period, the petitioner would be at liberty to renew his prayer for bail. Accordingly, this application is disposed of.
