IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. REV. No.641 of 2008 RAM TAHAL YADAV …. Petitioner Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR, 2. BHIM YADAV, 3. BHUNA YADAV, 4. RADHEY YADAV, 5. SAHDEO YADAV, 6. BIRJU YADAV, 7. DINESH YADAV, 8. RAMCHANDRA YADAV, 9. DOMAN YADAV AND 10. BALESHWAR YADAV …… Opposite Parties. ----------- 2. 8.12.2008. N.H./ This revision has been preferred against the judgment of acquittal dated 29.3.2008 passed by 2nd Assistant Sessions Judge, Jamui in Sessions Trial No.72 of 1995. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. The main grievance of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the court below has recorded the verdict of acquittal without examination of I.O. and the doctor. However, on perusal of the impugned order, it appears that the case is of the year 1994. The case was pending for more than 13 years before the trial court, but no serious effort was taken by the prosecution to examine those witnesses. The court cannot wait indefinitely for examination of witnesses. The opposite parties have already suffered mental agony for 14 years. Having regard to the facts and circumstances, I am not inclined to interfere in the impugned order of acquittal. Accordingly, the same is hereby rejected. ( Ghanshyam Prasad ) - 2 -
