GOVERNMENT OF GUJARAT @ THE STATE vs PUSHPARAJ PAVANLAL AADIWASI — 3872/2024

The court quashed the criminal proceedings against the accused under Section 281 (now Section 281 of Bharatiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023) due to the police's failure to present the accused before the court despite having ample opportunities and legal procedures available. The court noted the case had been pending in a dormant state for an extended period with no trial progress, making it unjust to grant further time to the police, and allowed for fresh proceedings to be initiated against the accused if warranted within the prescribed time limits.
