3. After hearing learned counsel for the
parties, looking to the role as assigned to
him of having common intention of meetings
done with the co-accused persons,
simultaneously he has not made any overt
act to deceased at the time of commission
of crime. It is alleged that charges have
not been framed yet and the son of the
petitioner has also been murdered in cross-
case by the other side. Considering the
period of custody, delay in trial and also
looking to the age of the accused, i.e., 70
years, without expressing any opinion on
the merits of the case, at present we are
inclined to release the petitioner on bail.
3. Accordingly, we direct that the
petitioner be released on bail on
furnishing the suitable bail bonds and
3

sureties and on such other terms and
conditions as may be deemed fit by the
trial Court.
4. Petitioner to abide all the conditions
as imposed and. The petitioner is directed
to attend the trial regularly without the
leave and permission of the court. The
petitioner shall not intimidate the
complainant or the witnesses in any manner.
Violation, if any, may give a cause to the
complainant as well as the State to take
recourse as permissible and the trial Court
is at liberty to do the needful.
5. Since the custody of the accused
persons is prolonged and the charges have
not yet been framed by the Court,
Therefore, it is directed that the charges
be framed within two months from today and
4

the trial be concluded within a period of
two years.
6. Accordingly and in view of the
foregoing, the special leave petition
stands allowed.
7. Pending application(s), if any, shall
stand disposed of.
