Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

An office-master in a Govt. Office lodged a FIR against his subordinate Junior Officer raising an allegation of having connivance with a culprit casual staff in the matter of misappropriation of Govt. money. A Criminal case U/S � 409, 420, 467, 468, 469 & 34 of I.P.C. was filed against the junior officer in the month of October-2010. The said officer surrendered before the Court on 24th January-2011 and he was released on bail on 1st May-2011.
Inquiry has been completed by the I.O. and report of the experts on signature verification has also been deposited. But still no charge-sheet has been filed so far. The sufferer officer wants to get this case finally decided as early as possible. What can be done from his part to expedite the matter?

he cannot do anything till the chargesheet is filed. If he feels the offences are not made out he can approach the highcourt for quashing of FIR.

You may approach high court for quashing if you think allegations are false or wait till the chargesheet is filed
