ORDER
22.01.2021 [N. Kotiswar Singh, J.]
Heard Mr. N. Uddin, learned counsel for the appellant. Also heard Mr. M. Phukan,
learned Additional Public Prosecutor, Assam.
It has been submitted that a criminal appeal being numbered as Crl.A. No.205/2020
has been preferred by the convicted accused Nitul Saikia against the judgment and order
dated 21.10.2019 passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Nagaon, in Sessions (T1)
Case No.47/2018 under Section 302 IPC.
Though the appellant has filed the regular appeal registered as Crl.A. No.205/2020, it
appears that another appeal has been preferred as the instance of the jail authorities being
Crl.A.(J) No.63/2020, perhaps unaware of the appeal already filed by the appellant.
In that view of the matter, we deem it appropriate to close the Crl.A.(J) No.63/2020, as
the same was filed by the same appellant.
Page No.# 3/3
It appears from the office note dated 28.12.2020 in Crl.A.(J) No.63/2020 that notice
was issued to the informant through the O/C, Raha Police Station, District-Nagaon, vide
Memo No.HC.XXIV/286/Crl.Appl.(J), dated 28.12.2020 by Speed Post.
Accordingly, await for the service report.
In the meantime, paper book be prepared as the LCR has already been received and
copies of the same be served on the learned counsel appearing for the parties.
List Crl.A. No.205/2020 for hearing as soon as the paper book is prepared.
