Summary In this Special Leave Petition (Criminal), the Supreme Court condoned the delay in filing but refused to grant the petitioner's relief at this stage. The Court directed the trial court to expedite and conclude the proceedings within six months from 25-02-2026, noting the petitioner's four-year custody and flight risk concerns as a Nigerian citizen. If the trial is not concluded within six months, the petitioner may revive the prayer before the trial court.
