Crl. M.C. No. 7411 of 2015
Dated this the 11th day of December, 2015
O R D E R
The petitioner herein is the sole accused in CC No.610/2009 of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-II, Nedumangad. He seeks a direction for expeditious trial and disposal of the case. His grievance is that in spite of repeated steps including coercive steps issued from the trial court, the Police has failed to procure the presence of witnesses, and the trial is being delayed.
Crl. M.C. No. 7411 of 2015
..2..
failure to produce witnesses. However, the learned Magistrate has reported that the case could be tried and disposed of within six months. In such a situation, I feel it not necessary to give a direction for a time bound disposal.
The report by the learned Magistrate that the case could be disposed of within six months is recorded, and the Crl.M.C. is accordingly disposed of.
Sd/- P. UBAID JUDGE
