Learned counsel for the applicant submitted that the applicant is husband of the deceased and has been falsely implicated in this case on account of suspicion; infact the deceased was done to death at her Maika where her dead body was found after slitting her throat; there is no direct or circumstantial evidence against the applicant, therefore the applicant may be enlarged on bail. Per contra learned AGA has submitted that during investigation the applicant was arrested and he confessed to have murdered his wife and on his disclosure statement knife used in the commission of crime in slitting throat his wife which proved fatal was recovered, I do not find it to be a fit case for enlarging the applicant on bail.

There is no representation on behalf of the applicant even today. 7. The bail application is dismissed for non-prosecution." 9. Learned counsel for the applicant at the very outset submits that since all the prosecution witnesses have been examined, he does not intend to press the present 4th bail application on merits but his only prayer is that an appropriate direction be issued to the trial court to conclude the trial within stipulated period of time. The applicant is in jail since 23.4.2019. 10. Learned counsel for the State could not dispute the same. 11. However since the bail is not being pressed on merits and prayer is only made for expeditious conclusion of the trial, it is provided that the applicant may file an application for expeditious conclusion of the trial of the case before the court concerned within two weeks from today, which may as per its load of work, diary and pendency of cases, pass appropriate orders on the same. 12. The bail application is thus rejected on the said count. (Samit Gopal,J.) Order Date :- 6.5.2025 Naresh Digitally signed by :- NARESH KUMAR High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
