O R D E R

This Criminal Original Petition has been filed to quash C.C.No.237 of 2011, pending on the file of the Judicial Magistrate Court No.VI, Madurai.

2.Though the learned counsel for the petitioners raised several grounds for quashing the charge sheet filed by the 1st respondent Law Enforcing Agency, he submitted that it would suffice, if a direction is issued to the trial Court to complete the trial within a time limit that may be stipulated by this Court https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

and also to permit the petitioners to raise all the grounds raised in this petition before the trial Court.

3.I have heard the learned Government Advocate (Criminal side) appearing for the first respondent, who has also conceded the request of the learned counsel for the petitioners. 4.In the light of the abovesaid submission of the learned counsel for the petitioners, this Court without going into the merits of the case, directs the learned Judicial Magistrate No.VI, Madurai, to complete the trial in C.C.No.237 of 2011, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and the petitioners are directed to appear before the learned Judicial Magistrate No.VI, Madurai, on 20.11.2017, for receiving copies. Considering the fact that the petitioners 2 to 4/A3 to A5, being female accused, I am inclined to dispense with their personal appearance. Accordingly, the personal appearance of the petitioners 2 to 4/A3 to A5 is dispensed with unless the learned Magistrate feels that their presence is required for the disposal of the case.

With the above direction, this Criminal Original Petition is disposed of. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
