And In Re: Sujit Kumar Shaw ... ... Petitioner Mr. Sagar Saha Mr. Madhu Jana Mr. Firdous Jaman ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Madhusudan Sur .. ld. Addl. Public Prosecutor Mr. Dipankar Paramanick ... ... for the State Heard the learned Advocates appearing for both the parties. We have considered the materials on record. Petitioner had absconded for seven years. There are materials implicating him in the murder. Trial is in progress. Under such circumstances, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage. The application for bail is thus rejected.

Trial court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same at an early date.
