Pasumpon Muthuramalingam and another, passed in Special Leave Petition (Criminal) Diary No. 30839/2021 wherein it has been held that undue preference should not be given to the new trials while expediting the proceedings over the old trial, I am of the view that no undue preference can be given to this trial over the pending old trials.
