Shri S.S. Doifode, A.P.P. for the non-applicant / State. CORAM : Z.A. HAQ, J.

DATE : 9.10.2018.

Heard.

Criminal Application (BA) No.580/2017 filed by the applicant was dismissed as withdrawn on 17th July, 2017. Now, this application is moved under Section 439 of the Code of Criminal Procedure seeking directions to the non-applicant to release the applicant on bail as according to the applicant the prosecution is being protracted and the applicant and other three accused, who are in custody, are deprived of their liberty without any justification.

Except for the contention that there is delay in proceeding with the trial, the applicant has not been able to point out any change in the circumstances. Apart from this, considering the material on record and the fact that the trial has started and one witness is examined, I

2 ba876.18 am not inclined to grant the prayer made in the application. The application is dismissed.

The Sessions Court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude it within four months.

JUDGE Tambaskar.
