03-Oct-2024 (In Criminal Law)
I am the accused in pocso7/8 . It's been 1 year but victim and informant is not coming to court for chief examination. They just did FIR and now escaping to come to court. Summon has been issued but still they are not appearing in court. Just because I am accused I am going through the trouble. My lawyer is also not taking any step as he only care about his fees and judge is only giving date. I don't want to go high court and pay another lawyer fees. Judge and lawyers are irresponsible
If the witnesses are not appearing despite summons, you can request the court to act under Section 22(1) of the POCSO Act for non-compliance, and use Section 35 to push for a speedy trial. Your lawyer should file an application for immediate action. If they are not proactive, communicate your concerns and push for faster steps. Consider hiring another lawyer if this continues, as it might expedite your case.
