ORDER
Perused
the Note dated 15.4.2010 submitted by the learned Metropolitan
Magistrate, Court No.17, Ahmedabad.
In
the said Note, the learned Metropolitan Magistrate has stated that
vide order dated 7.12.2007 made in Special Criminal Application
No.2263 of 2007, this Court had directed that the trial be completed
as expeditiously as possible and preferably within a period of six
months from the date on which the application of segregation made by
the petitioner is decided in connection with Criminal Cases No.630
of 1989 to 633 of 1989 pending before the said Court.
The
learned Magistrate has submitted that, on account of various
difficulties narrated in the Note, it is not possible for the trial
to be completed within a period of six months and he has,
accordingly, requested for extension of time to conclude the trial.
Considering
the difficulties stated by the learned Magistrate, the request for
extension of time requires consideration.
As
is apparent from the order dated 7.12.2007 made by this Court, the
learned Magistrate has been requested to complete the trial as
expeditiously as possible and preferably within a period of six
months. Thus, there is no compulsion to decide the matter within
six months. The learned Magistrate may, therefore, conclude the
trial qua the petitioner as expeditiously as possible without undue
delay. The Note stands disposed of accordingly.
