The police is also stated to have filed a supplementary report under Section 173 of the Cr.P.C., (as regards the petitioner), after which the trial does not seem to have progressed for one reason or the other, essentially for non-production of some accused from Ghaziabad (U.P.) Learned State counsel, on query, submits that as per his instructions only three prosecution witnesses could be examined so far by the trial court out of the said 43 witnesses.

Learned counsel for the complainant however submits that it being a case of a double murder, the petitioner may not be admitted to bail.  !      !"
