THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.1988 OF 2004 JUDGMENT: On the basis of a complaint given by P.W-1 to Chandarlapadu Police alleging that on 13.04.2003, the accused trespassed into her house, caught hold of her hand in an attempt to commit sexual assault on her by using criminal force and that on her raising hue and cry, the neighbours gathered and the accused ran away, a case in Crime No.22 of 2003 was registered and after completion of the investigation, the charge sheet was filed. The learned Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Nandigama, took cognizance of the offences punishable under Sections 448 and 354 IPC against the accused and committed the said P.R.C.No.23 of 2003 to the Court of Assistant Sessions Judge, Nandigama, who conducted trial of the case. During the course of trial, the de facto complainant was examined as P.W-1 and six more witnesses-P.Ws.2 to 7 were examined and Exs.P-1 and P-2 were marked. The learned Sessions Judge, having considered the said oral and documentary evidence on record, came to the conclusion that the prosecution miserably failed in brining home the guilt of the accused for the said offences and accordingly, acquitted him of the said charges. The State which filed the said C.C. before the Court below has not chosen to challenge the order of acquittal of the accused passed by the Court below and hence, the de facto complainant who was examined as P.W-1 filed this Revision invoking the jurisdiction of the Court under Sections 397 and 401 Cr.P.C. It should be remembered that it is a Revision against the order of acquittal of the accused, where the scope of Revision is very much restricted. Even if this Court ultimately holds that the first respondent herein-accused is guilty of the said offences with which he is charged, this Court can only remand the matter to the Court below for fresh disposal of the matter, but cannot convert the said finding of acquittal into conviction. In those circumstances, I see no merits in this Criminal Revision Case and the same is accordingly dismissed. __________________________________ JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA 27th January 2011 DR
