C.R.R. 1577 of 2026
Diptanil Daw Vs. State of West Bengal & Anr.
Mr. Amarta Ghose, Mr. Souryadeep Ghosh, Mr. Rahul Nag, Mr. Bisweswar Patra ….for the Petitioner Mr. Subir Ganguly, Mr. Sandeep Prasad Shaw …for the State
The petitioner has prayed for quashing of the proceedings in Sessions Trial No. 05 (06)/2024 arising out of Sessions Case No. 110/2023, corresponding to G.R. Case No. 1884 of 2022, which originated from Serampore Police Station Case No. 363 of 2022 dated October 5, 2022, registered under Sections 148, 149, 188, 353, 332, 333, 325, 307, and 506 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.
Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that there is no injury report on record and, therefore, the continuation of the present criminal proceeding is unwarranted and liable to be quashed. It is further contended that neither the First Information Report nor the charge sheet contains any specific allegation against the petitioner. However, it appears from the records that the trial has already commenced. Charges were framed by the learned Trial Court on June 10, 2024.

Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that, despite several dates having been fixed for recording evidence thereafter, no witness has appeared before the Trial Court. In view of the aforesaid circumstances, this revisional application is disposed of with a direction to the learned Additional Sessions Judge, 1st Court, Serampore, to issue a non- bailable warrant of arrest against any witness who fails to appear on the next date fixed for evidence. In the event that such witness still fails to appear despite the issuance of a non-bailable warrant of arrest, the learned Trial Judge shall be at liberty, if the interests of justice so require, to strike out the name of such witness from the list of witnesses. The learned Trial Judge shall also make every endeavour to conclude the trial expeditiously and shall refrain from granting any unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties. Accordingly, CRR 1577 of 2026 stands disposed of. Urgent certified website copies of this order, if applied for, be made available to the parties upon compliance with the requisite formalities.
