Hon'ble Bala Krishna Narayana,J. Hon'ble Sanjay Kumar Singh,J.
Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned AGA for the State.
This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner with the prayer to quash the F.I.R. in Case Crime No.443 of 2017 under Section 307 IPC, registered at P.S.- Ghiror, district Mainpuri.
After advancing his arguments at some length, learned counsel for the petitioner gave up his challenge to the impugned F.I.R. and made a prayer that a direction be issued to the courts below to consider and decide the bail application of the petitioner expeditiously in accordance with law. He further submitted at the Bar that he is not pressing any other prayer made in the writ petition.
In view of above, we refused to quash the impugned F.I.R.
However, considering the prayer made by learned counsel for the petitioner, it is directed that in case the petitioner appears before the court concerned within thirty days from today and applies for bail, the same shall be heard and disposed of expeditiously by the courts below in view of the settled law laid by the Seven Judges' decision of this Court in the case of Amrawati and another Vs. State of U.P. reported in 2005 Cr.L.J. 755 which has been affirmed by Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Lal Kamlendra Pratap Singh Vs. State of U.P. reported in 2009 (3) ADJ 322 (SC).
With the above directions, this petition is disposed of finally.
