IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.17174 of 2008 1. MD.SAHAIL ANSARI 2. Md. Abid Ansari 3. Md. Ashrat Hussain, all sons of Abdul Razaque 4. Abdul Razaque, Son of Late Abdul Miyan All residents of Village-Kasba Gogari, P.S. Gogari, District-Khagaria ------------- Petitioners Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 02 02-07-2010 When the case was called out, no one appeared on behalf of the petitioners. Four petitioners, while invoking inherent jurisdiction of this Court under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, have prayed for quashing of the order dated 27.3.2008 passed in Sessions Trial No.151 of 2006 (arising out of Gogari P.S. Case No.301 of 2003) by the learned Addl. Sessions Judge, F.T.C. I, Khagaria. By the said order, the learned Addl. Sessions Judge, has rejected the petition filed under Section 227 of the Code of Criminal Procedure on behalf of the petitioners for their discharge. I have perused the material available on record. All the petitioners are named in the F.I.R. as accused for the offences under Sections 341,323,324,307 and 504/34 of the Indian Penal Code. It appears that after registering the F.I.R., the case was thoroughly investigated and thereafter chargesheet was submitted against the petitioners. As per the F.I.R., occurrence had taken place on 29.12.2003. After commitment when the case reached at the stage of charge, a petition was filed for their discharge by the 2 petitioners. On the basis of materials available on record, this Court is satisfied that the petition for discharge was filed only with an object to delay framing of the charge and after rejection of the same, again the present petition was filed before this Court. I do not find any material warranting exercise of inherent jurisdiction in favour of the petitioners. Keeping in view the fact that offence had taken place in the year 2003, it is desirable to direct the court below to expedite and conclude the trial as early as possible without granting any unnecessary adjournment.
