Patna High Court – Orders
Indal Das vs The State Of Bihar on 13 December, 2010
              IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA
                      Cr.Misc. No.13683 of 2010
    INDAL DAS son of Banwari Das, resident of village- Khadiha,
                              P.S.Dhanarua, Distt. Patna.
                                Versus
                              petitioner

                         1.   THE STATE OF BIHAR
                               -----------

2 13.12.2010

The petitioner has sought quashing of

the order dated 22.2.2006 passed by the

S.D.J.M. Mashaurhi in Dhanarua P.S Case No.

111/2005 by which he has refused to recall

P.W 1 and P.W 2 on the prayer of the

petitioner.

On going through the impugned

orders, I find that the petitioner was

present on the date of examination of these

witnesses who were police officer and despite

repeated calls the defence refused to cross

examine these witnesses. Even though this

order was passed on 22.2.2006, the trial has

not concluded even after four years due to

dilatory tactics of the petitioner.

In view of such the application is

dismissed.

The Sessions Judge Patna is directed

to make an inquiry as to how the criminal
2

revision filed in the year 2006 was disposed

of about three years later. He is directed to

impress upon the rest of the Judicial

Officers not to keep such matters pending

which unnecessarily delay the trials.
