...for the Petitioner.

...for the State.

Petitioner is in custody for more than three years. He contends co-accuseds are on bail. He renews his prayer for bail.

Learned Advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail. He submits report. Charge has been framed. We have considered the materials on record. Bail prayer of the petitioner was rejected on merits earlier. There is progress in the matter and charge has been framed. Under such circumstances, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner at this stage.

Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is rejected.

Trial court is requested to conclude the trial at an early date without granting any unnecessary adjournments to either of the parties.
