IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA
CR. APP (DB) No.228 of 2007
TAIYAB MIAN & ANR
Versus
STATE OF BIHAR
-----------
04 04.07.2008 Heard learned counsel for the appellant no. 1 and the
learned counsel for the State in respect of I.A. No. 493 of 2008
through which the appellant has renewed his prayer for bail, which
was earlier rejected on merits on 21.2.2007.
Appellant no. 1 is the husband of the deceased lady and
considering all the facts and circumstances, we find no good reason to
take a different view in the matter. The prayer for bail is again
rejected.
It has been submitted that the appellant no. 1 is in custody
since 19.7.2001 i.e. for about seven years. In that view of the matter,
let hearing of the appeal be expedited. Considering that appellant is in
custody for more than 8 years, let the hearing of the appeal be
expedited. It is expected that appeal shall be heard within a period of
one year. Otherwise, if so advised the appellant may renew his prayer
for bail.
