However, since then, no effective proceedings have been conducted by the Trial Court. It is pointed out that only the statement of PW-1 has been recorded till date. In these circumstances, a direction may kindly be issued to the concerned Trial Court to expedite the trial and conclude the proceedings within a fixed time frame.
