IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Criminal Miscellaneous No.28336 of 2009 Ram Prit Rai, Son of Late Baldeo Rai, resident of village- Narepur, P.S. Bachhwara, district-Begusarai .. Petitioner. Versus State Of Bihar Through. ADG, Vigilance Investigation Bureau, 6 Circular Road, Bihar, Patna ….Opposite party. ---------------------------------- 2 15-09-2011 None appears on behalf of the petitioner to press this petition on repeated call. Learned counsel appearing for the Vigilance is present. Heard learned counsel for the Vigilance and perused the record. This petition under Section-482 of the Cr.P.C. has been filed for quashing the entire proceeding of Vigilance P.S. Case No. 2906 of 1986 pending in the court of Special Judge (Vigilance-II), Patna on the ground that the aforesaid case was instituted in the year, 1986 but uptill now, the aforesaid case has not been disposed of. It is manifest from perusal of Paragraph-1 of the petition that charges were framed against the petitioner on 10/11/2000 and the prosecution closed his evidence on 20.01.2003 and since then, the case is running for recording the evidence of defence. It would appear from the aforesaid fact that it is not the fault of the prosecution rather the petitioner has himself, delayed the trial by not adducing any defence. In the aforesaid circumstance, I do not find any ground to quash the proceeding of Vigilance P.S. Case No. 2906 of - 2 - 1986. Accordingly, this petition is dismissed at the admission stage itself. Since the case relates to the year, 1986, the concerned court is directed to conclude the above-said case within three months from the date of receipt of this order. Accordingly, this petition stands disposed at the admission stage itself. AKV/- (Hemant Kumar Srivastava,J.)
