NIRMALJIT KAUR, J. (Oral) The present petition has been filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. seeking grant of necessary permission to the petitioner to visit abroad upto 30.9.2010 or in the alternative to direct the Court of learned Sessions Judge, Faridkot to decide the application dated 12.8.2010 (Annexure P-2) of the petitioner with an identical prayer in a shortest possible time frame. It is contended that earlier the application filed by the petitioner before the court below seeking permission to go abroad was rendered infructuous as the dates for which he was required to go abroad had lapsed. Thereafter, the petitioner moved second application seeking permission to go abroad from 2.9.2010 to 11.9.2010 to Thailand and thereafter from 14.9.2010 till 28.9.2010 to England wherein notice has been issued for 18.9.2010. Thus, the second application will also be rendered infructuous on the said date. After hearing learned counsel for the petitioner, I deem it appropriate to direct the Special Judge, Faridkot, where the application is Crl. M. No.25760-M of 2010 -2- pending, to prepone the same and decide the same within one week from today on merits after due notice to the State. Disposed of. Copy of this order be given dasti under the signatures of Court Reader. 1.9.2010 ( NIRMALJIT KAUR ) rajeev JUDGE
