Quick Summary

A user is asking if a judge can refuse to issue a certified copy of documents, even after a chargesheet has been filed. The judge reportedly denied the request because summons had not yet been served to the accused, despite the FIR being filed in 2018 and the chargesheet in 2020. The user questions this procedure and the judge's authority in a magistrate court, especially when police have allegedly delayed serving summons for two years.

@ Tamil Indian,

Did you seek opinion / advise of the lawyer engaged by you, if any ?

The facts posted are unbelievable.

When our Judicial Officers can act in that manner, what is the use of telling the accused that the right to speedy trial is his fundamental rights. Charge sheet filed in 2020, in 2022 accused pray for furnishing of documents as mandates by 207 CrPc, it was refused on the grounds that the njudge has not issued summon to the accused, what does the judge means? The judge has remanded the case for two years without any reasons and this is really unfortunate.
