WA No.893/2010 17.10.2011 Shri G. S. Ahluwalia, learned counsel for the appellant. Shri A. P. Singh, learned counsel for respondent Nos.12 & 13. Heard. This appeal has been filed against the interim order dated 7.4.2010 which has been continued by the order dated 14.7.2010 by a learned single Judge of this Court. By that interim order, the respondents which include the State machinery, have been directed not to take any further steps on the complaints filed by the respondent No.12. This appeal has been filed by the said respondent No.12. It is an interim order against which writ appeal may not be permissible. Moreover, it is open to the said respondent No.12 to make an application before the learned single Judge for early hearing of the interim matter or the writ petition itself, as the learned single Judge may find convenient. We see no reason to doubt that if such a request is made, the learned single Judge would deal with the matter as expeditiously as the Board of learned Single Judge permits. It will be open to the respondent No.12 to contend before the learned Single Judge that instead of granting such blanket protection to the appellant, the interim order can be modified by directing that on any complaint filed or to be filed either by the respondent No.12 or by any other person, the police may not arrest the writ petitioners if the complaint is on facts identical with any other pending complaint in which bail has already obtained by the writ petitioners. It is open to the respondent No.12 to request the learned single Judge to modify the interim order accordingly and to thereby make the criminal proceedings open for continuation, keeping in mind the fact that delay in the criminal proceedings result in fading of memory of the witnesses and destruction of evidence, creating complications in criminal trial. Because of the above reasons, the appeal is dismissed. Certified copy as per rules. (Sushil Harkauli) (Alok Aradhe) Acting Chief Justice Judge snb/-/AK
