The learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant is in jail for three years and six months and except framing of charge there is no progress in the trial. 6.

On the other hand, the learned A.P.P. for the Respondent-State submits that the applicant has assaulted the injured by deadly weapon. It is submitted that considering the nature of offence, the applicant may not be released on bail. 7.
