In cases involving murders and other serious crimes, police is supposed to complete investigation and to file Chargesheet against Accused in Six Months.
As a part of investigations, blood stains on clothes, weapons, cause of death etc have to be examined and its report have to be filed in Court.
If the report is not received in time, police files charge sheet in time without report of laboratory ! Then the Court has to await for report !
And we blame Court for Delay!
Laboratory takes time to submit reports.. Sometimes as long as 3 Years....
Imagine agony of accused, court and all other connected with trial.
I do not know what can be reasons of such delay. May be too many cases and too little staff and equipments! Or could be other reasons, I have no idea.
But this could be one major factor for delay in trials.
