Shirshendu Das And Another v. State Of West Bengal And ANR

17.09.2025 sdas CRR 3314 of 2025 In Re : An application under Section 482 read with Section 483 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 corresponding to Section 528 read with Section 529 of the BNSS, 2023.

In Re : Shirshendu Das & Anr. .....petitioners Mr. Sagir Ahmed Mr. Tasnim Ahmed Mr. Dhiman Banerjee Mr. Quazi Ezaz Ahmed ...... for the petitioners The present revisional application has been filed with a prayer for the expeditious disposal of Airport Station Case No. 430 of 2021 dated 10th November 2021, under Sections 498A/406/307/120B, and 34 of the Indian Penal Code, corresponding to G.R. Case No. 9993 of 2021, pending before the court of the learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Barrackpore, North 24-Parganas.

Mr. Ahmed, learned Advocate representing the petitioners, submits that following a matrimonial discord, opposite party no. 2 lodged a complaint against the petitioners. Based on that complaint, Airport Police Station Case No. 430 of 2021 was registered against the petitioners and their relatives. He further submits that during the pendency of this case, both parties attempted to settle the dispute amicably. In the course of this settlement, a substantial amount of money was handed over to opposite party no. 2 by the petitioners, and as per the decision taken during the settlement process, a suit seeking a decree of divorce by mutual consent was also instituted. The same is pending final

adjudication. However, since the opposite parties did not appear before the court and, due to their non-cooperation, the marital tie has not yet been dissolved. He further submits that in view of this, the petitioners seek expeditious disposal of G.R. Case No. 9993 of 2021. He submits that the petitioners are ready to cooperate with the prosecution as well as the learned Trial Court to facilitate its prompt disposal. Having heard the learned Advocates appearing for the petitioners and upon perusal of the materials on record, I am of the view that there is no reason to keep the revisional application pending. I do not find any impediment in accepting such an innocuous prayer of the petitioners, and if any direction is given for the disposal of the trial, the opposite parties would not be prejudiced.

In view thereof, the revisional application is disposed of by directing the learned court below to dispose of G.R. Case No. 9993 of 2021 as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of six months from the next date fixed by the learned court below. (Partha Sarathi Chatterjee, J.)
