Abstract

Society cries for justice when a crime is committed. It cries more when criminal trial does not commence in time and it loses its faith when justice is denied to the victim because of the delayed trial and non-conviction of the guilty of crime. The Supreme Court declared in HussainaraKhatoonv State of Bihar that the speedy trial is a fundamental right of the citizen. Our courts are well aware of the fact that the speedy trial is sine qua non for proper administration of justice. Despite various judgments of the Supreme Court, speedy trial has become almost impossible due to mounting arrears in the courts and the courts getting over-burdened because of them. As a consequence, justice has become biggest casualty.
