BY GOVERNMENT PLEADER MR.GIKKU JACOB THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 02/03/2009,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Rs/ M.N. KRISHNAN, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = W.P.C. NO. 6728 OF 2009 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 2nd day of March, 2009. J U D G M E N T This writ petition is filed to direct the Addl. Sessions Court, North Paravur to ensure that CWs.1, 3 and 4 are examined in connection with S.C.28/04 and to postpone the trial. It is true that there is a direction given by this Court to expedite trial and dispose it of at any rate before 14.4.09. That does not mean that for no reason the case can be adjourned or opportunity should not be given. What this Court stated was to have an expeditious trial if other things are alright and dispose it of. If it is proved before a Court that a very important witness in a case is not in a position to come to the Court, necessarily the Court will hear that problem and will grant adjournment or pass some order to get him examined. So these are all matters which any Court of law will consider and one need not rush to the High Court for an order in these types of cases. Having come to this W.P.C 6728 OF 2009 -:2:- Court I do not want to disappoint the petitioner and therefore I direct the learned Sessions Judge, North Paravur to consider any application moved by the prosecution seeking for time for examination of witnesses on the ground of ailment or other unfavorable circumstances and pass appropriate orders. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE. ul/-
