Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State.
The petitioner by the present application has renewed his prayer for regular bail which was earlier rejected vide order dated 0303.2015 passed in Cr.Misc.No.18952/14.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is the husband and suicide note indicates that he is not responsible, rather mother-in-law happens to be responsible for her suicide.
However, after perusal of material on record I do not find any fresh ground for grant of bail to the petitioner though he has annexed order dated 8.10.2015 passed in Cr.Misc. No.25389/15 by which the father –in-law of the deceased had been

granted regular bail and brother-in-law (Devar) had been granted bail vide order dated 10.2.2016 passed in Cr.Misc.No.57542/15 whereas the mother-in-law had been granted bail by the court below. Since the trial is likely to be concluded within a period of six months from today, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is again rejected.
The trial court is, however, directed to expedite the trial and ensure that it is concluded within a period of six months positively.
