15.12.2025 IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA Item no.34 Court No.29 CRIMINAL REVISIONAL JURISDICTION RANJAN APPELLATE SIDE CRR 5038 OF 2025 TUHIN KUMAR DEY - VS. -

THE STATE OF WEST BENGAL & ANR.

Mr. Rahul Deb Goenka, Learned Advocate Mr. Mainak Singha Barman ……….For the Petitioner This is an application wherein petitioner has prayed for expeditious disposal of Sessions Trial No. 01(12) of 2021 pending before the Court of learned Additional District Judge, 13^th Court, South 24-Parganas at Alipore.

The petitioner’s contention is that the instant proceeding was initiated on 19th June, 2021, being Kasba P.S. Case No. 162 dated 19.06.2021 under Section 307 of the Indian Penal Code. The investigation culminated into a Charge-sheet and thereafter, Charge was framed and the Court below started recording of deposition of witnesses. However, since then only 05 witnesses have been examined so far out of total 27 Charge-sheeted witnesses and he further submits that the trial Court has not made any endeavor for early conclusion of the trial and accordingly, petitioner made this prayer before the Court for a direction upon the Court below, for expeditious disposal of the said Sessions trial.

Having heard learned Counsel for the petitioner, it appears that the prayer made by the petitioner in innocuous and if an order is passed in terms of the prayer made in the petition, opposite party will have to cause to prejudice and therefore the service of copy of application upon the opposite parties is dispensed with.

Since the prayer made on behalf of the petitioner is justified considering long pendency of the proceeding, I find prayer is required to be allowed for the ends of justice, invoking this Courts jurisdiction under Section

529 of BNSS.

The instant application being CRR 5038/2025 is hereby disposed of with the direction upon the Court below to make his best endeavor to conclude the trial at the earliest and to make his best effort to conduct day to day trial as far as possible without granting any unnecessary adjustment to either of the parties and to conclude the entire proceeding preferably within a period of six months from the next date of hearing.

Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, duly applied for, be given to the parties upon compliance of all requisite formalities.
