Sk. Mafuzur Rahaman v. Md Rahamat

C.R.R.304 of 2023 D/L106 07.02.2023 Bpg.

In Re: An application under Section 483 read with Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973;

Sk. Mafuzur Rahaman

Versus

Md. Rahamat Mr. Rahul Kumar Singh.

...for the petitioner.

Learned advocate appearing for the petitioner, i.e. complainant submits that although the complaint case was initiated in the year 2014, but the prosecution till date could not complete the evidence because of continuous adjournments sought for by the accused persons.

In view of the anxiety expressed by the learned advocate appearing for the petitioner/complainant regarding the time consumed in concluding the trial under the provisions of Negotiable Instruments Act, I direct that the learned Judicial Magistrate, 10th Court, Alipore would on and from 16th February, 2023 fix one date in a month so that the trial of the case can be taken to its logical conclusion within a reasonable period of time. Any party to the case praying for time should be penalised with cost for adjournment. All efforts must be taken so that the trial of the case is completed at the earliest.

With the aforesaid observations, CRR 304 of 2023 is disposed of.

All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance of all requisite formalities.
