CORAM : S.C.DHARMADHIKARI AND PRAKASH D. NAIK, JJ.

DATE :

26th April 2017 PC :

1.

Perused the application. The prayer is to quash a process issued by the Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Pune in Criminal Case No.775 of 2007, which is now renumbered as Regular Criminal Case No.668 of 2008. The whole proceedings are sought to be quashed. 2.

It is fairly stated that now and by passage of time, the charge sheet is filed. An application for discharge is also preferred by the Applicant. Since that application is still pending, are the instructions of Mr.Pai, interest of justice would be served if we dispose of this application with a direction that if such an application is indeed pending, the same be expeditiously decided. It may be disposed of on or before 30th June 2017. Liberty is granted to the Applicant to file additional submissions in support of his plea for discharge. We

2 of 2 SB.903.APL.487.2013 clarify that despite the application being pending, we have not expressed any opinion on the rival contentions. Ad-interim order granted on 20th August 2013 is vacated accordingly. (PRAKASH D. NAIK, J.) (S.C.DHARMADHIKARI, J.) MST
