Learned APP submitted that there is no change of circumstance warranting entertaining of the second bail application. 5.

Perused the papers. Vide order dated 7th April, 2014, this Court (Coram: A.R.Joshi, J.) had rejected the applicant's application for bail on merits, by a detailed order, after considering all the submissions which are again sought to be argued before me.

6.

The Apex Court vide order dated 23rd February, 2015, in Special Leave to Appeal (Cri) No.2837 of 2015 has passed the following order :- 2/3

3/3 "Learned counsel for the petitioner seeks leave to withdraw the special leave petition.

The special leave petition is dismissed as withdrawn. However, this withdrawal will not stand in the way of the petitioner to move before the appropriate forum." 7.

Learned Counsel for the applicant is unable to point out any change in circumstance, since the first application for bail was rejected by this Court vide order dated 7th April, 2014. 8.

Considering the same, the application for bail is rejected and disposed of as such. However, the trial of the applicant is expedited. The Trial Court shall make an endeavour to dispose of the case, as expeditiously as possible.
