And In Re :

Sanatan Mandal @ Sonatan Mandal ... Petitioner Mr. Tapadip Gupta Mr. Suman Bhanja ... for the Petitioner Mr. Rudradipta Nandy Mrs. Manasi Roy ... for the State Status report submitted by the State is taken on record.

The petitioner is in custody for more than two years and prays for bail.

Opposing the prayer learned counsel for the State submits that only the Investigating Officer is left to be examined and trial is about to conclude.

On merits, the bail prayer of the petitioner was turned down by this Court earlier. There is no change of circumstances which warrants a favourable order at this stage. Accordingly prayer for bail is rejected at this stage. Learned trial Court is directed to take the proceedings to its logical conclusion as expeditiously as possible without granting any unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties.

The application is disposed of.

Case Diary is returned.

Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
