Order No. 4
Dated the 9 November 2011
th
I.A. No. 1791 of 2011
Mr. Khatri, learned counsel for the appellant submitted that
though the prayer for bail of this appellant was earlier rejected on merit on
14/05/2007
, but he has remained in jail custody for a total period of nine
years by now and there is no chance of hearing of this appeal in near
future; and that the bail is granted in other cases only on the ground of
custody of more than seven years.
From the order dated 14/05/2007, it appears that the bail of this
appellant was rejected in view of the fact that there is specific evidence
against him that he shot dead the deceased by using his pistol.
In our opinion, no grounds are made out for reconsidering the
prayer for bail of this appellant. Accordingly, it is rejected. However, let the
hearing of the appeal be expedited.
I.A. No. 1791 of 2011 stands disposed of.
