Mr. T.A. Mirza, APP for the respondent. ---- CORAM : A.H. JOSHI, J. DATE : 08th March, 2011. 1. Heard. 2. Applicant is accused in Regular Criminal Case No. 308 of 2008. It is a case under the provisions of Indian Penal Code and the Bombay Money Lending Act. 3. According to applicant, First Information Report, which was filed in 2006, consists of a grievance which dates back to a decade, and the case is filed on the charge- sheet and, therefore, this results in unnecessarily dragging the accused to the Court and vexing. 4. On perusal of copy of FIR which is tendered during course of hearing and the impugned order, what prima facie appears to this 2 Court is that the trial of the case is already in progress, and on seeing adequate material, the charge was framed. 5. As the trial of the case is in process of hearing, all the more, there is no ground for discharge at this stage. 6. In the circumstances, petition has no merit, and is dismissed. Judge |Hedau|
