Other two accused have to face the trials in court. Death of one of the accused will not be an advantage to other two who are alive please.

If there ia an allegation against a person A dies simple logic and common sense that can we proceed against him and deliver judgement also. it is a futile exercise.. If there are other accused than the deceased case proceeds against him

How can you be in an appeal when charges are yet to be framed? In the instant case proceeding shall abate against deceased accused.
