It is also submitted that the Court concerned is not taking proper interest to ensure the appearance of the accused before it. 4. Learned AGA opposed the prayer. 5. I have considered the submissions and perused the entire record. 6. It reflects from the perusal of the order sheets that the aforesaid case is pending since the year 2017. The accused persons are not appearing before the Court concerned. The trial court is expected to invoke its power to ensure service of process upon the accused persons, which is sent under its seal and order in order to procure the presence of the accused. 7. In the circumstances, the Court concerned is directed to take all possible measures to procure the presence of the accused / opposite party nos. 2 to 9 and also the witnesses by sending appropriate process to them and thereafter all endeavours shall be made by it for expeditious disposal of the case, if there is no legal impediment. 8. It is also made clear that the Court / Presiding Officer is not the only stake holder of the trial and disposal of a case, hence, besides the P.O. concerned, all the stake holders i.e. police and execution authorities, advocates, parties to the case, staff etc. 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. 9.
