.... .... Petitioner

Versus

The State of Bihar .... .... Opposite Party ====================================================== Appearance :

For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Jitendra Narain Sinha For the Opposite Party/s : Mr. Rana Randhir Singh ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 13-10-2017 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner.

This is an application for bail in connection with Patory P.S. Case No. 505 of 2016 registered for the offences punishable under Sections 30 and 38(i) of Bihar Prohibition and Excise Act. Allegation is of recovery of 7.4 litres of liquor from the possession of petitioner and it appears that he is accused in another case of similar type.

Submission of learned counsel for the petitioner is that he was not arrested at the spot and later on he has been remanded in this case. So far other case is concerned, it is submitted that he is on bail in that case and he is in custody for two months. Heard learned APP also.

Having heard both sides and in view of allegation as well

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.48100 of 2017 (2) dt.13-10-2017 2/2 as criminal antecedent, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

However, learned trial court is directed to expedite the trial and try to conclude it within a period of four months by conducting trial on day to day basis. If trial is not concluded within the said period, trial court will release the petitioner on bail to its own satisfaction on the condition that he will co-operate in disposal of trial.

With the above observation, this application is disposed of.
