Hon'ble Neeraj Tiwari,J.
This is second bail application.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant and Sri Rajeshwar Singh, learned AGA for the State-respondents.
The present bail application has been filed for enlarging the applicant on bail in Case Crime No. 135 of 2020, under Section 307 I.P.C., Police Station -Fariha, District -Firozabad.
On being confronted by the Court, learned counsel for the applicant could not point out any new ground except this fact that trial has not been completed which was directed to complete within one year vide order dated 04.11.2020 passed in Criminal Misc. First Bail Application No. 32267 of 2020.
Per contra, learned A.G.A. submitted that order has been served on 15.04.2021 before trial Court, therefore, trial could not be completed.
Therefore, under such facts and circumstances of the case, criminal history of the applicant, the gravity of the offence, the nature of accusations and severity of punishment in case of conviction, there does not appear any good ground to release the applicant on bail.
At this juncture, learned counsel for the applicant prayed that the trial is proceedings at snail's speed, hence the trial court be directed to conclude it within some time bound period.
However, the trial court is directed to make all possible efforts to conclude the trial expeditiously, if possible, within a period of one year from the date of production of computer generated copy of this order.
With the aforesaid observations, the bail application is rejected. Order Date :- 30.9.2021 Sartaj Digitally signed by NEERAJ TEWARI Date: 2021.09.30 17:39:33 IST Reason: Document Owner Location: High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
