He further submits that the petitioner is a victim of financial fraud and continues to suffer consequences, therefore, the petitioner seeks a direction to the trial Court to expedite and conclude the complaint case within a stipulated time. 3. I have heard learned Counsel appearing for the Petitioner and perused the documents annexed with the petition including the order sheets of the Trial Court. 4. Section 528 (corresponding to Section 482 of the CrPC) is engrafted to allow the High Court to intervene in cases where there is a clear abuse of process or where it is necessary to prevent injustice. It is not meant to manage the trial process and specific timelines for disposal. Given that the petitioner is a complainant and has already been examined, I am not inclined to direct the trial Court to expedite and conclude the trial within a specific time bound manner. 5. Accordingly, the instant petition is hereby dismissed at motion stage itself. Sd/- (Sanjay Kumar Jaiswal) Judge Sourabh P.
