court and therefore, matter could not proceed further. Further more,
prosecution failed to secure the presence of the accused. No statement of
independent witnesses have been recorded by Investigating Officer during
investigation. Even complete trial would not result into conviction of
accused. Therefore, this is a fit case wherein provisions of section 258 of
Cr.P.C. can be resorted to stop the proceeding. Hence, following order is
passed.
