Dear Experts

My husband was murdered in 2010 and the culprits has been identified by the crime branch and COD dept, my side lawyer is public prosecutor, but it has been 5 years of his death but the culprits very initially (2010) has been granted bail not even giving an information to us and the case is going very slow, In 2015 summons are given to the eye witness and they have appeared to the court for 5 times.But not even a single question is been asked to them only giving future dates.(1 or 1.5 month ahead)

I want to know what points i can ask the PP OR can I change the lawyer

What documents i have to get from PP for my personal records as I dont have any thing regarding this.

GO TO HIGH COURT AND SEEK DIRECTION FOR SPEEDY TRIAL OF THE CASE.
Once the high court passes such order the trial would conclude in time bound manner.

You should engage your lawyer also. Approach High Court for directives of speedy trial.

The reason why they were given bail in a murder case clearly illustrates flaws in the chargesheet and also prima facie not completely established. Other aspects as suggested by Adv Barman,or else one fine day the accused will be enlarged Scott free.Hence better engage a competent criminal lawyer and proceed in the HC.

Well advised by the experts.
It is advised to engage a younger advocate charging less fee. He will help you to explain that why the adjournment was. Then if you feel it proper you may engage an experienced one.
