It is not submitted that the stolen materials were recovered. As a matter of fact, the defacto complainant died. A3 also died. A1 and A2 are regularly attending the Court. It can be seen that there is no previous or subsequent case as against these accused. Considering the fact that the accused have been facing the proceedings from the year 2017 and the antecedents of the accused, any further continuance of the case, will impinge upon right to a speedy trial of the accused. Due to the passage of time, a meaningful trial is unlikely, and no useful purpose would be served. 3.
