For the Petitioner/s :
Mr.Sanjiv Kumar Singh For the Opposite Party/s :
Mr. Dinesh Singh ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 21-06-2021 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State, through Video Conferencing.
The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Sessions Trial No. 52 of 2019, arising out of Dharhara Police Station Case No. 52 of 2010, registered for the offence punishable under Sections 427/124-A of the Indian Penal Code, Section 17 of the Cr.L.A. Act, Section 13 of the U.A.P. Act, Section 13 of the Damage to Public Property Act and Sections 3/4/5 of the Explosive Substances Act.
This is the second attempt on behalf of the petitioner for grant of regular bail. Earlier, the prayer for regular bail of the petitioner was rejected by this Court, vide order, dated 31.01.2020, passed in Criminal Misc. No. 53004 of 2019.
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.1599 of 2021(3) dt.21-06-2021 2/2 This Court, vide order, dated 10.03.2021, had called for a report from the learned Court below regarding the stage of the case and in pursuance of the said order, a report has been submitted by learned 2nd Additional Sessions Judge, Munger and from perusal of the same, it would be evident that out of the 17 witnesses, three have been examined and cross-examined and the Trial Court has given the estimated time for disposal of the trial within six months.
After having heard learned Counsel for the parties and taking into consideration the fact that the bail petition of the petitioner has been dismissed earlier on merit, I am not inclined to grant regular bail to the petitioner, at this stage. This application is, accordingly, dismissed.
However, the petitioner may renew his prayer for bail after three months from today, if the trial does not make any progress.
