Act, the petitioner is not entitled for bail. A report was called for from the trial court. It has been reported that all the prosecution witnesses have been examined in the present case and the case has been fixed for argument. Considering the nature of accusation and the stage of the case, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. The same is rejected.
The Trial Court is directed to take all necessary steps to conclude the trial at the earliest.
