Learned counsel for the State opposed the prayer for bail. Having heard both sides, considering the fact and circumstances of the case and nature of allegation, I am not inclined to release the petitioner on bail, his application for regular bail is, accordingly, dismissed.
However, the trial court is directed to expedite the trial and try to conclude the same within a period of nine months. (Vinod Kumar Sinha, J) sunil/- U T
