Unit officers may cross check the figures with those available in the records of DPO/CsOP.

&= nbsp; 2. Hon’ble Chief Justice of Kar= nataka and patron-in-chief Karnataka State Legal Services Authority (KSLSA) is very keen to minimize the pending position in various courts with the active cooperation of the police in order to give relief to innumerable litigant public which will provide other collateral benefits such as saving time, money, energy for all the wings of the Criminal Justice System (CJS) & the Government as a whole. The Police department= has agreed to contribute its mite & strive to the maximum extent towards achieving this laudable objective as reduction of pendency & ensuring speedy trials are the com= mon goals of all the wings of the CJS. With this objective in view the following instructions issued:

&nb= sp; I. Compoundable cases :

In this connection attention is invited to Sec.320(1) CrPC the provisions of which are reproduced below for information and ready reference.

“ 320.Compounding of offences (1) The offenc= es punishable under the Sections of the Indian Penal Code (45 of 1860) specifi= ed in the first two columns of the table next following may be compounded by t= he persons mentioned in the third column of that table:- ”

i)&n= bsp; = ; As per this, the parties involved in the case viz., the victim and the accused may compound the offence(s). Unit officers are instructed to issue appropriate instructions to all PSI, CPIs, & DSPs to bring the accused and victims together providing them an opportunity to compound the cases amongst them voluntarily. In this regard the role of the local police is to act people friendly and as a catalyst in bringing down pendancy in the Courts by enabl= ing parties to come together.

ii)&= nbsp; &nbs= p; The provisions of Sec.320(2) Cr.PC are reproduced below for information and ready reference.

&= nbsp; “ The offences punishable under = the Section of the Indian Penal Code (45 of 1860) specified in the first two columns of the Table next following may, with the permission of the Court before which any prosecution of such offence is pending be compounded by the persons mentioned in the third column of that Table:- ”

As per Sec.320(2) offences punishable under certain secti= ons of IPC are specified under the= table below. Under the above section parties may with the permission of the Court before which any prosecution for such offence is pending compound the same. Here also unit officers are instru= cted to make utmost efforts to bring the parties together before the Courts for action u/s 320(2) of the Cr.PC.

        =       =              Through above efforts, it is possible to dispose of a substantial number of cases o= ut of the compoundable cases numbering 63047.

II. Petty Cases :

As many as 2,14,891 cases are shown to be pending under t= he category of petty offences before the Courts. These are cases of a petty nature booked by the police under various sections of Karnataka Police Act of 1963 and Motor Vehicle Ac= t as 1988. These cases are pending because the accused did not appear before the Court or summons/processes have not been served/executed upon them. The Courts are entitled to stop proceedings in such cases u/s 258 Cr.PC.&n= bsp; Unit Officers are instructed to immediately undertake a drive for serving processes in respect of these cases so that maximum number of cases under this category are disposed off within one month from the date of rece= ipt of this circular. In this connection, Provisions of Sec.258 Cr.PC are reproduced below for information and ready reference.

̶= 0; 258.Power to stop proceedings in certa= in case – In any summons case instituted otherwise than upon complaint, a Magistrate of the first class or, with the previous sanction of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, any other Judicial Magistrate may, for reasons to be recorded by him, stop the proceedings at any stage without pronouncing any judgment and where such stoppage of proceedings is made after the evidence = of the principal witnesses has been recorded, pronounce a judgment of acquitta= l, and in any other case, release the accused, and such release shall have the effect of discharge.”

=

        &= nbsp; III. Session Cases:=

It may also be noted that as many as 8,076 cases are pend= ing with the Sessions Courts. Needless to say it is of utmost importance in the public interest for the police to co-operate to the maximum extent in disposal = of these cases. Unit officers are instructed to sensitize the DySsP, PIs, PSIs= , so that a maximum number of sessions cases get disposed off at the earliest wi= th the active participation of the police and periodical reviews are undertake= n at the district level, towards this end.

=

All help & cooperation should = be provided to the Courts in the speedy disposal of these cases.

=

&nb= sp;        3. Instructions contained in the above paragraphs should be understood and implemented in letter and spirit. It is emphasized that public inter= est and maintenance of law & order should be uppermost in the mind while carrying out above instructions. All care should be taken to see that the steps taken by the police do not lead to complaints from any quarters and that nothing is done which may= exacerbate public order and crime situation in your unit. The only intention in this exercis= e is to minimize pendency, so that all wings of Criminal Justice System are able= to focus on more important crime through savings in time, money, human resource and effort as already explained above.&nbs= p; Before undertaking these measures Unit officers should hold detailed discussions with the Principal Session Judge of the unit and Chairpersons of the District Legal Service Authority and Dy.Director of the Prosecution of = the area/public prosecutor and chalk out the action plan in your jurisdiction in close coordination with them.
