                                       ORAL ORDER

2   22-04-2026               1.    Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and

                   learned A.P.P. for the State.

                             2.    The petitioner seeks bail in connection with Chausa

                   PS Case No. 237 of 2020 for the offences punishable under

                   Sections 307, 302, 120B and 34 of the IPC and Section 27 of the

                   Arms Act.

                             3.    The learned counsel for the petitioner, at the outset,

                   submits that this is the forth attempt of the petitioner to seek

                   regular bail.

                             4.    On query of the court with regard to the stage of

                   the trial, the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the

                   petitioner fairly submits that the trial has concluded and the case

                   is fixed for hearing.
              Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.5090 of 2026(2) dt.22-04-2026
                                                          2/2




                                 5.     Since the trial has concluded and the case now is

                        fixed for hearing, hence the Court is not inclined to release the

                        petitioner on bail.

                                 6.     Accordingly, the prayer for regular bail of the

                        petitioner is rejected.

                                 7.     However, the learned trial court is directed to

                        ensure that the final hearing is concluded expeditiously.
