For the Petitioner/s :

Mr. Sanjay Kumar For the Opposite Party/s :

Mr. Sri Abhay Kumar Roy CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 06-12-2018 Heard the parties.

The petitioner seeks regular bail in connection with Aurangabad Town P.S.Case No.214 of 2017 registered for offences punishable under Sections 363, 365, 367, 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

Earlier the prayer for bail of the petitioner had been rejected by a Co-ordinate Bench of this Court, vide order dated 5.3.2018 passe din Cr. Misc. no.54219 of 2017 and allegation against the petitioner is that 14 years daughter of the informant was called by her and taken away from the house on the occasion of EID and thereafter she did not return. Submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that earlier also she used to flee away, which appears from para 70 of the case dairy and another co-accused Md. Jawed has been granted bail vide order dated 27.11.17 passed in Cr. Misc.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.58928 of 2018(3) dt.06-12-2018 2/2 no.54009/17 and the petitioner is in custody since 10.7.17. Heard learned A.P.P. also, who has opposed the prayer for bail on the ground that the petitioner has taken minor daughter of the informant and she is still traceless and in para 69 and 70 of the case diary the witnesses have also stated that this petitioner has taken her away.

Having heard both sides and from perusal of the order dated 17.11.2017 passed in Cr. Misc. No.54009 of 2017 it appears that the learned Co-ordinate Bench while rejecting the prayer for bail of the petitioner noticed the fact that co-accused Md.Jawed has been granted bail. It further appears that the petitioner is named in the FIR and her name also transpired during the course of the investigation.

In such view of the matter, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner, however, since the petitioner is in custody since long, the learned trial court is directed to expedite the trial of the petitioner.

Accordingly, this application is dismissed.
