Ejazz Maswood Ahmed @ Ezaz Ahmad v. State Of West Bengal And ANR

18.09.2023

IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA

Item No.64 CRIMINAL REVISIONAL JURISDICTION Ct.No.34 dc.

C.R.R. 3548 of 2023 In the matter of : Ejazz Maswood Ahmed @ Ezaz Ahmad ... Petitioner.

Mr. Md. Shamim Uddin, Mr. Sandipan Das, Mr. Rounak Shaw ... For the Petitioner.

Mr. Arijit Ganguly ... For the State.

Petitioner has challenged the charge-sheet filed in connection with Karaya Police Station Case No. 164 dated 29.05.2010 under Sections 324/114 of the Indian Penal Code. More than 13 years have passed since the initiation of the instant case.

Having considered the application which was preferred at a belated stage without the documents under Section 207 of the Code of Criminal Procedure when the date for evidence has been fixed before the learned trial court, I am not inclined to interfere with the prayer so advanced. The petitioner would be at liberty to canvass all the points in course of trial at the final stage of the arguments of the case.

The learned trial court is directed to fix at least one date in a month so that trial of the case can be concluded within a reasonable period of time.

With the aforesaid observations, the revisional application being CRR 3548 of 2023 is disposed of. Pending connected application, if any, is consequently disposed of.

All concerned 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 with all requisite formalities.
