P.C. 1 Applicant is accused no.2 in C.C.No.629/PW/2010 (Old C.C.No.1239/P/1989) arising out of crime no.479 of 1988 registered with D.B.Marg Police Station. Charge was framed on 23.12.1999. Applicant seeks to quash the said charges. In view of the delay of more than 11 years in filing this application, I am not inclined to interfere. 2 Grievance of the learned counsel for the applicant is that even though case pertains to 1988 and was registered in 1989 and charges were framed in 1999, trial has not yet commenced. If it is so, it is sorry state of affairs. Therefore, the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Bombay is hereby directed to expedite the trial and dispose off the case as early as possible and in any case, before the end of the year 2011. - 2 - 3 With the aforesaid directions, application stands disposed off.
