THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. SAROJ SINGH, SON OF GOBIND SINGH 3. GOBIND SINGH, SON OF LATE LALDEO PRASAD SINGH 4. NAND KISHORE SINGH, SON OF LATE LALDEO PRASAD SINGH 2 TO 4 ARE RESIDENT OF VILLAGE SOHRA, POLICE STATION MAUBATPUR, DISTRICT PATNA ********** 2 28/06/2011 This application has been filed for challenging the order dated 19.05.2008 passed in Criminal Revision No. 58 of 2008 by which the Sessions Judge, Patna has affirmed the order dated 24.12.2007 passed in Naubatpur Police Station Case No. 76 of 2001 by the Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Danapur. The application was filed under Section 311 of the Code of Criminal Procedure praying therein that the Investigating Officer of this case should be examined as he would be the best person to support the prosecution case. It would appear from the perusal of this case that the case is pending for arguments, the prosecution has filed an application on 22.11.2003 which was rejected on 06.07.2004. Considering the lapse of time since 2004, this Court finds it strange that the case arising out of Naubatpur Police Station Case No. 76 of 2001 has not 2 been concluded as yet. This application is dismissed with a direction to the Court below to dispose of the Naubatpur Police Station Case No. 76 of 2001, pending before the Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate, Danapur to dispose of the case as expeditiously as possible, if not already concluded.
