The learned counsel relies upon the said document and submits that the petitioner is suffering from Ischemic heart disease as per the report dated 16.11.2024 and having taken note of these documents it is clear that he is having heart ailment and hence he may be enlarged on bail. 4.

Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned High Court Government Pleader appearing for the respondent-State, this Court while rejecting the bail petition of the petitioner in Crl.P.No.8546/2024 in the month of September 2024, taken note of the earlier rejection of the petition in the month of February 2024 and directed the Trial Court to expedite the matter since already more number of witnesses have been examined and to complete the trial within six months from the date of receipt of a copy of the order. This order was passed in the month of September 2024 and even six months have not been elapsed and when such a direction is already given and also when the respondent State is ready to provide the treatment at the best hospital the petitioner chooses - 4 - NC: 2025:KHC:2670 CRL.P No. 13723 of 2024 at the cost of the petitioner, the State can be directed to take him to the hospital whenever his treatment is required. Having considered the material on record, already petitions are disposed of on several occasions on merits and found prima facie material against the petitioner and hence the question of granting bail on medical ground does not arise. No ground is made out to allow the petition. 6. In view of the discussions made above, I pass the following: ORDER The petition is rejected. Sd/- (H.P.SANDESH) JUDGE MD List No.: 1 Sl No.: 71
