Hon'ble Nalin Kumar Srivastava,J. 1. This application under Section 483 Cr.P.C. has been filed with a prayer to direct the court concerned to conclude the trial of Case No.210 of 2008 (State of U.P. Vs. Jauli and others) arising out of case crime no.19 of 2008, under Section 3/8 Cow Slaughter Act and Section 11 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, Police Station Tajganj, District Agra pending in the Court of Special Chief Judicial Magistrate, Agra, expeditiously within a stipulated period. 2. Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned A.G.A. for the State. 3. Applicant is the accused in the aforesaid case. It is submitted that the matter is very old and is pending at the stage of evidence for long. Trial court is not taking any interest for the disposal of this case. 4. From perusal of the record it appears that out of the two accused persons, one was absconding which caused delay in the proceedings of this case but however now both the accused persons are present before the court. 4. In the circumstances, since the matter pertains to the year 2008 and falls within the category of very old cases, the court concerned is directed to decide the aforesaid case expeditiously, preferably within a period of one year without granting any unnecessary adjournments to either of the parties, if there is no legal impediment, provided the applicant cooperates with the trial. 5. It is also made clear that the Court / Presiding Officer is not the only stake holder in the trial and disposal of a case, hence, besides the P.O. concerned, all the stake holders i.e. police and executive authorities, counsels, parties to the case, staff are also made bound by this order and it will be their responsibility also to assist the Court in every manner for the expeditious disposal of this case. 6. With the above observations, the application stands disposed of. Order Date :- 6.5.2025 ss Digitally signed by :- SANDEEP SHARMA High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
