Learned counsel for the State submits that in this case after completion of investigation charge-sheet has already been filed in the court below and the petitioner has been charge-sheeted in the case.

On perusal of the statements made in the writ application, it appears that the petitioner is looking for reinvestigation of the case on the strength of letter as contained in Memo No. 218 dated 12.06.2019 issued under

Patna High Court CR. WJC No.1805 of 2019(2) dt.04-02-2020 2/2 the signature of Deputy Inspector General of Police, Darbhanga Range, Darbhanga (Annexure - 3).

Learned counsel for the State has informed that the Investigating Officer has not found any fresh material to go for any further investigation in this case and no ground is available in the writ application to take a view that the case requires re-investigation.

This court has perused the materials available on the record. It appears from order passed by this Court on 05.08.2019 in Cr. Misc. No. 22809/2019 (Annexure -2) that while rejecting the prayer for bail of the petitioner this court has observed that the trial of the case be expedited so as to conclude positively within a period of one year. In the writ application, there is no material to support the prayer of the petitioner to direct re-investigation of the matter. Thus, This Court finds no merit in the Writ Application. It is dismissed, accordingly.
