1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL WRIT PETITION NO. 2935 OF 2009 Aftab Ahmed Khan .. Petitioner (Org.accused) Vs. State of Maharashtra & Anr. .. Respondents (Org.complainant) Mr. M.C.Shah i/b. Mr.R.R.Sharma,Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. S.N.Gawade, APP, for respondent No.1.. Mr. Ranvir Shekhawat, i/b. Ms. Jyoti S. Gore, Advocate, for respondent No.2. CORAM: J.H.BHATIA, J. DATE : 8th June, 2010. P.C. 1. Heard the learned Counsel for the parties. 2. The respondent No.2 filed a complaint under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act against the present petitioner in the Court of J.M.F.C. Tasgaon, District Sangli. The learned Magistrate issued the process. The issuance of process has been challenged in the present Writ Petition on the basis of several documents, including the agreement between the parties. Admittedly, the petitioner did not file any revision before the Sessions Court challenging the order of issuing process. As the efficacious remedy of revision is available under the provisions of Cr.P.C., I refrain from exercising the Extraordinary Writ Jurisdiction 2 under Article 227 of the Constitution. 3. Therefore, the petition stands dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to challenge the impugned order before the Sessions Court by filing a revision application. 4. However, to facilitate filing of a revision application, proceedings before the trial Court shall remain stayed for a period of eight weeks from this day. (J.H.BHATIA,J.)
