Sephali Bibi @ Anjumara Bibi v. State Of West Bengal And ORS.
C.R.R. 76 of 2021 D/L36 22.09.2022 Bpg.
In Re: An application under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973;
Sephali Bibi @ Anjumara Bibi
Versus
The State of West Bengal and others Ms. Tiyasa Ghosh.
...for the petitioner.
Md. Anwar Hossain, Ms. Manisha Sharma.
...for the State.
The petitioner is aggrieved by the manner in which the proceedings are pending before the learned trial court. As none appears on behalf of the State, Ms. Manisha Sharma, learned advocate, who ordinarily appears on behalf of the State is directed to represent the State. Her appearance may be regularised by the concerned authorities.
The records which have been enclosed along with this revisional application are the FIR and the charge-sheet. The First Information Report was registered in the year 2018 and chargesheet was submitted before the jurisdictional court on 04.06.2019. I have considered the contentions advanced in the revisional application. The records which have been enclosed are more than 31⁄2 years of old. The present stage of the case before the learned trial court has not been apprised to this Court. However, having regard to the fact that the anxiety of the petitioner who happens to be the complainant cannot be ignored, I direct that in
case the proceedings are still pending before the learned Magistrate and are to be committed to the learned sessions court, learned Magistrate would take steps so that the case is committed to the court of sessions within a period of three months from the date of communication of this order. In case, the proceedings have already been committed to the learned sessions court, in that case the learned sessions court would take steps for consideration of the charges and progress with the trial in a regular manner so that the same can be concluded within a reasonable period of time. With the aforesaid observations, CRR 76 of 2021 is disposed of.
Pending applications, if any, are consequently disposed of.
All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. (Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
