Smt. Neeraj v. State of U.P. and Another
Case brief
What is this about?
Allahabad High Court, Neutral Citation 2025:AHC:62310; TRANSFER APPLICATION (CRIMINAL) No. 215 of 2025, decided 24.4.2025 by Manoj Bajaj, J. Transfer of criminal case under Section 447 BNSS, 2023; Case No. 418 of 2005, Gram Nyayalaya, Handiya, District Prayagraj; Case Crime No. 227 of 2024, Sections 323, 504, 427 IPC, P.S. Handiya; alleged threats by advocate-accused; two-decade trial pendency; advocate status alone insufficient ground for transfer; application dismissed.
What did the court decide?
The sole ground raised for transfer of the case — alleged threats by the accused — is not worth acceptance, as no particulars of the alleged threats were mentioned and the trial has been pending for the last two decades. ¶8
