1) the time limit prescribed is 60 days for offences punishable with 10 years / less and 90 days in other cases as per sec 167(2) of crpc.

2) if police fail to submit charge sheet with in the this time limit,accused is entitled to bail as a matter of right , from the magistrate court itself, even in sessions cases

3) the accused being an influential person may try to manipulate the police findings so that case gets diluted

4) HC will only quash the complaint if no prima facie case is made out against the accused

5) if you are aggrieved by order of HC quashing the complaint you can appeal to SC against the order
