ORDER:
Heard Sri Battula Sanjaiah Gandhi, learned counsel representing on behalf of Sri Naga Praveen Vankayalapati, learned counsel for the petitioners and Sri K. Narasimha, learned counsel for the respondent No.2.
2. Assailing the order passed in Crl.M.P.Nos.142 and 143 of 2023 in C.C.No.239 of 2011 on the file of Special Judicial Magistrate of First Class, (Prohibition & Excise), Guntur, this petition is filed by the petitioners/accused.
3. During arguments, learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that they requested the trial Court for speedy disposal and this petition may be disposed of by giving a direction to the learned Trial Court to dispose of the matter within a particular time frame as the matter pertains to the year 2011.
4. Learned counsel for the respondent No.2 also fairly conceded to dispose of the petition with that observation. Even as per the directions of this Court on the administrative side, vide Roc.No.559/OP Cell-E/2022, dated 20.10.2022, Roc.No.560/OP Cell/2022, dated 23.11.2022, and Roc.No.101/OP Cell/2023, dated 12.10.2023, more than five (05) year-old cases shall be disposed of as expeditiously as possible. This matter is of the year 2011. The learned trial Court has already allowed both the petitions filed by the prosecution as well as the de-facto complainant to examine the witnesses through an Advocate Commissioner.
5. So, without touching the merits of the case, this Court is of the considered view that this petition may be disposed of by directing the learned Trial Court to dispose of the matter as expeditiously as possible preferably within a period of six (06) months as the case is ten years old matter.
6. In the result, this criminal petition is disposed of, and the learned Special Judicial Magistrate of First Class, (Prohibition & Excise), Guntur, is directed to dispose C.C.No.239 of 2011 as expeditiously as possible preferably within six (06) months in accordance with law.
As a sequel, miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall stand closed.
