The pe..on is dismissed . All pending applica�ons, if any, stand closed. However, considering the pe��oner's right to speedy trial coupled with the pre-trial incarcera�on, this court requests the concerned trial court to make all endeavours to conclude the trial within three months, of which the prosecu�on evidence be completed preferably within two months and the remaining �me to provide an opportunity to the accused to lead defence evidence, if so desired, and to conclude its hearing. To meet the deadline, an endeavour be made to speed up the process for service and to pass the necessary direc�ons in this regard. It is clarified that if expedi�ng this trial disturbs the docket of the concerned court, then a balance be struck, and if, on this account, any delay happens, then an extension can be sought by men�oning such reasons. It is clarified that this order speeding up the trial is subject to the condi�on that neither the pe��oner shall seek any adjournment nor try to use any tac�cs to delay the trial. If they do so, this order of expedi�ng the trial shall stand automa�cally recalled by resor�ng to Sec�on 362, read with Sec�on 482 Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, without any further reference to this court. If any of the accused is on bail and fails to a?end the trial without any sufficient cause, then they be dealt with strictly but in accordance with the law. It is clarified that if the trial is not concluded by the date men�oned above, and if the delay is not a?ributable to the pe��oner, then the pe��oner may file an applica�on for bail before the trial court, which shall decide it expedi�ously and consider the bail on the grounds of pre-trial custody, and all the previous orders of dismissal passed by the trial court or High Court shall not come in the way.
