Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.71205 of 2021(2) dt.05-01-2022 2/2 mortem.

The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner is languishing in custody since 29.02.2020 and there is no progress in the trial. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the materials on record. This Court finds that the prayer of the petitioner for grant of bail was rejected earlier by a well reasoned order and moreover, there is no change in circumstance so as to warrant reconsideration of the prayer of the petitioner for grant of bail, hence the present petition stands dismissed, being bereft of any merit. At this juncture, the learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the learned court below be directed to expedite the trial.

It is needless to state that the learned trial court may make an endeavour to complete the trial expeditiously. (Mohit Kumar Shah, J) Tiwary/- U T
