JUSTICE PARTHIVJYOTI SAIKIA ORDER Date : 19.05.2025 Heard the learned counsel Mr. M Ahmed appearing for the applicant. Also heard Mr. K Baishya, the learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the State of Assam. This is an application under Section 5 of the Limitation Act, 1963 praying for condonation of 19 days delay in filing the connected appeal. I have gone through the application and I have found that the delay has been satisfactorily explained. At this stage, going for issuance of notice to the private respondent would be sheer waste of time. Therefore, no notice is required to be sent to the private respondent No. 2. Accordingly, the delay stands condoned. The IA is allowed and disposed of accordingly. The connected appeal shall be registered and listed for admission hearing. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
