Let the defect(s) be removed within two weeks of the complete start of the physical Court in normal course. Petitioner, who is in custody since 11.06.2020, seeks regular bail in connection with Singhawara P.S. Case No. 95 of 2020 registered for offences punishable under Sections 302, 201/34 and 120(B) of the Indian Penal Code.
Allegation against the petitioner is that he along with other co-accused namely, Baiju Das and Gurudev, killed the informant's son namely, Md. Nazim. There is direct allegation against the petitioner that he had assaulted the informant's son by the means of iron rod on the right side of the jaw as well as on the frontal region of the head. The injury caused is serious in
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.39940 of 2021(3) dt.03-03-2022 2/2 nature.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the informant submits that trial has proceeded considerably and there is every likelihood that the same will be concluded within a period of six months.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that he will not make any kind of hindrance in concluding the trial.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail at this stage. Superintendent of Police, Darbhanga is directed to produce prosecution witnesses on the date fixed by the trial Court.
The trial Court is directed to conclude the trial expeditiously within a period of six months. If no substantial progress takes place in trial, the petitioner, if so advised, may renew his prayer for bail after the aforesaid period. (Purnendu Singh, J) Niraj/- U T
