CRM-A-1066-MA-2018 Applicant's counsel submits that the present application was filed against acquittal in the year 2018 and he has a very good case on merit. Counsel appearing for the respondent submits that the judgment of acquittal is well reasoned and leave to appeal should not be granted. He further submits that in case, this Court grants leave to appeal and admit the main appeal, its turn will not come for hearing for decades, as such pendency of the appeal may be treated in-consequential for the respondent.
