Ripan Sardar v. State Of West Bengal

14.09.2023 Serial no. 54 [G.S.D] CRR 3437 of 2023 In the matter of : Ripan Sardar ... ... Petitioner Mr. M. H. Chowdhury ... for the petitioner Ms. Baisali Basu ... for the State The petitioner is directed to serve a copy of this revisional application upon Ms. Baisali Basu, Learned Advocate, who ordinarily appears on behalf of the State. Her appearance may be regularised by the concerned authority. Learned Advocate for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was arrested on 3rd of November, 2022 and since then he is in custody. It has been submitted that chargesheet has been filed in connection with the instant case. Next date has been fixed for consideration of charges on 19th of September, 2023.

Having regard to the manner in which the ld. Special Court is scheduling the date, I am of the view that the case has been progressing in a smooth manner.

The ld. Special Court is to see that if the charge cannot be framed on 19th of September, 2023, then, in all

probabilities, by 15th of October, 2023, the process of consideration of charges must be over. The trial Court, if thinks fit and proper, keeping in mind that seven witnesses are to be examined in connection with the instant case, would fix a schedule consisting of three days at regular intervals, so that the trial of the case can be taken to its logical conclusion within a reasonable period of time. The ld. Public Prosecutor conducting the case would produce the materials, exhibits and documents in course of the trial so that the trial of the case can be completed at the earliest. With the aforesaid observations, CRR 3437 of 2023 is disposed of.

Pending application, if any, is also disposed of. Parties to act on a server copy of this order duly collected from the official website of the Hon'ble High Court at Calcutta.

Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties, subject to compliance, with all requisite formalities.
