Hi
Committing the case to trial will take atleast 3 to 6 months depending on the work load of the trial court.
The victim can apply for certified copies of the documents(FIR, Charge sheet ) by making an application to the trial court as these are public documents and are supplied free of cost to victim.

The Supreme Court ruled that a charge sheet, or final investigation report cannot be made public as they are not public documents and would violate the rights and freedoms of the victim and the accused.
