Mr. Abhay Kumar Singh, Advocate ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE PURNENDU SINGH ORAL ORDER 12-05-2022 Heard the parties.

Heard learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner and learned A.P.P. for the State.

Let the defect(s), if any, be removed within two weeks of the complete start of the physical Court in normal course.

The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Jagdishpur P.S. Case No. 140 of 2021 for the offence punishable under Sections 302 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 27 of the Arms Act.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has falsely been implicated in the present case. He

Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.49332 of 2021(4) dt.12-05-2022 2/2 further submits that the petitioner has not committed the alleged offence and has also no concerned with the alleged offence. It has been submitted on behalf of the informant that the trial is on advance stage and it is on verge of its conclusion. It would not be in the interest of justice to release the petitioner on bail.

Considering the serious nature of allegation made against the petitioner, I am not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail at this stage.

Accordingly, the present bail application is rejected. The trial court is directed to conclude the trial expeditiously well within a period of 6 months. If no substantial progress takes place in the trial within the aforesaid period, the petitioner, if so advised, may renew his prayer for bail.
