This is the second attempt of the petitioner for bail. The petitioner has renewed his prayer for grant of regular bail which was earlier rejected on merit by this Court vide order dated 30.07.2025, passed in Cr. Misc.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is languishing in judicial custody since 12.09.2024, without any rhymes or reason, having one criminal antecedent.

In view of the above, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is again rejected with a direction to the court below to expedite the trial and conclude the same expeditiously preferably within a period of four months from today.
