O R D E R

The petitioner herein is the accused in S.C.No.482/2012 of the Additional District & Sessions Court (Atrocities against Children & Women), Ernakulam. He seeks a direction for expeditious disposal of the case. As required by the court, the learned trial Judge has reported that trial has already commenced, and that coercive steps are also in progress to ensure production of the material witnesses. It is also reported that the total pendency there is 400, and that the case now stands posted to 28.09.2015 for examination of the material witnesses. In the above circumstance, I feel it not appropriate to give a direction for time bound disposal. However, earnest efforts will have to be made by the learned trial Judge to ensure the presence of the material witnesses, and to see that the case is disposed of at the earliest. If the police fails to produce the material witnesses in spite of strict directions and coercive steps, the learned trial Judge can resort to the next procedure.

Crl.M.C.. No. 6049/2015 In the result, this Crl.M.C. is disposed of, with direction to the court below that earnest efforts shall be made to try and dispose of C.C.No.482/2012 without any delay, and if possible, within three months.
