It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner he is in custody for about two years. It is further submitted there is delay in trial. Accordingly, he renews his prayer for bail.

2.

Learned Advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail and submits bail prayer of co-accused has been turned down and time frame for conclusion of trial as directed by the Coordinate Bench has not expired.

3.

We have considered the materials on record. Bail prayer of the petitioner was rejected earlier on merits. Time frame fixed by the Coordinate Bench has not expired. Trial is in progress. Under such circumstances, we are not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner either on merits or on the score of delay in trial.

4.

The application for bail is thus rejected.
