========================
OP(Crl.)No.162 of 2024
------------------------------------------------
Dated this the 23rd day of February, 2024
JUDGMENT
The limited relief now sought for by the petitioner is for a
direction to the Sessions Court-V, Thiruvananthapuram to consider
and pass orders on Crl.M.P.No.1/2024 in Crl.R.P.No.1/2024 in a time
bound manner.
2. According to the petitioner, he had filed an application
for discharge in C.C.No.208/2011 on the files of the Chief Judicial
Magistrate Court, Thiruvananthapuram. However, the said
application was allowed only in part, against which a revision has
been preferred. Though an application for stay of the trial court
proceedings were sought for, no orders have been passed and as the
trial court has posted the case for framing of charge, petitioner
apprehends that the revision itself would become redundant unless
orders are passed on the application for stay of trial court
proceedings.
3. Having heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner as
well as the learned Public Prosecutor, I am satisfied that this original
petition can be disposed of with a direction.
4. Accordingly, there will be a direction to the Additional
Sessions Court-V, Thiruvananthapuram to consider and pass orders OP(CRL.) NO. 162 OF 2024
on Crl.M.P.No.1/2024 in Crl.R.P.No.1/2024, as expeditiously as
possible, at any rate, within four weeks from the date of receipt of a
copy of this judgment. The learned Magistrate shall defer the
proceedings in C.C.No.208/2011 for framing of charge, till orders are
passed by the Sessions Court on the application, as directed above.
The original petition is disposed of accordingly.
