Home Locknow Counsel for Applicant :- Sandeep Kumar Pal,Desh Deepak Singh Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Rajeev Singh,J. 1.

He also submits that after arrest, applicant was implicated in four other cases, he is in jail since 7.12.2022 and charge has already been framed on 8.8.2023. Learned counsel for the applicant further submits that all the witnesses are police personnel but till today only one witness has been examined out of 45, therefore, there is no possibility of conclusion of trail in near future. In such circumstances, applicant is entitled for bail. 4. Learned A.G.A. vehemently opposes the prayer of the applicant and submits that applicant is a resident of Vageraht Khula, Bangladesh, earlier his involvement was found in one case, in which, he was enlarged on bail, thereafter, he went back to Bangladesh and in case, he is enlarged on bail in the present case, there is possibility that applicant will not cooperate in the trial. He further requested that trial court may be directed to conclude the trial expeditiously. 5. Considering the submissions of learned counsel for the applicant, learned A.G.A. and going through the contents of the bail application as well as other relevant documents, as the applicant is a resident of District Vageraht, Bangladesh, therefore, it is difficult to ensure the presence of applicant for conclusion of trial.
