Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.45027 of 2017 (3) dt.17-10-2017 2/2 Heard learned APP also.
Having heard both sides and in view of long misuse of privilege of bail, 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 five months. If trial is not concluded within the said period, learned trial court shall release the petitioner on bail to its own satisfaction on the condition that he will co-operate in trial.
With the above observation, this application is dismissed. (Vinod Kumar Sinha, J) spal/- U
