case in which he is on bail. Petitioner is quite innocent and falsely been implicated in the present case.

¶17

The learned A.P.P. for the State vehemently opposes the prayer for bail of the petitioner by submitting that the petitioner is named in F.I.R. and upon his confessional statement, the recovery of looted articles have been made from co-accused Ajay Kumar, and hence, he does not deserve bail.

¶18

Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, nature of allegation levelled against the petitioner as well as material available on record, I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner. Accordingly, the prayer for bail of the petitioner is hereby rejected.

¶19

However, the learned trial court is directed to conclude the trial within six months from the date of receipt/production of copy of this order to the court concerned. If the trial is not concluded within the stipulated period, petitioner may renew his prayer for bail.
