HC declined to quash 1999 FIR involving charges under IPC Sections 406/420/468/471/120B and tax laws. Despite the 24-year pendency and petitioner's age (71), the court found the allegations of forgery, breach of trust, and false documentation too serious for quashing. While acknowledging the constitutional right to speedy trial under Article 21 per Hussainara Khatoon precedent, HC noted only 5 of 17 prosecution witnesses had testified since charges were framed in 2021. Court directed expedited trial proceedings rather than quashing, finding insufficient grounds despite prolonged prosecution. Petition disposed of with instructions for timely conclusion of trial.
