prejudiced his rights.

trial would continue insofar as the petitioner herein and other accused. The trial Court to expedite the process of splitting up of the case vis-Ã -vis

those who are absconding and to go on with the commencement of trial of other accused who are before this Court.

learned HCGP and the direction that is passed, the said aspect is taken note of and mere delay at the present juncture would not be sufficient to
