And In Re : Biplab Biswas ........ petitioner Mr. Debopriyo Karan ...... for the petitioner Mr. S.G.Mukhopadhyay,Ld. P.P.

...... for the State The petitioner is in custody for 687 days.

The petitioner renews his prayer for bail.

Learned lawyer for the State opposes the prayer for bail. We have considered the materials on record including the statement of the victim girl. Bail prayer of the petitioner was rejected earlier on merits.

Under such circumstances we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail is rejected. Trial court is directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same at an early date without granting unnecessary adjournments to either of the parties.
