THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.5837 of 2010 O R D E R: This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. by the petitioner-accused to recall PW.1 for further cross-examination in S.C.No.142 of 2006 on the file of the Assistant Sessions Judge at Mancherial. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that due to inadvertence, the learned counsel for the petitioner before the Sessions Court could not put some questions to the witness PW.1 at the time of her cross-examination. So he prayed to recall the witness PW.1 for the purpose of further cross-examination. Admittedly, the present case is triable by the Court of Sessions. At the time of examination of witness by the prosecution under Section 231 Cr.P.C., the petitioner has every right to recall the witnesses. Under Section 233 Cr.P.C., the Sessions Judge is empowered to call upon the accused to enter his defence and adduce any evidence, which he may have in his support, which includes recall of the witnesses examined by the prosecution, if necessary. Hence, the petitioner-accused is directed to approach the Sessions Court at an appropriate time by way of filing of an application under Section 233 Cr.P.C. and the learned Sessions Judge is directed to consider the same favourably for the just adjudication of the case. With the above direction, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. __________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 30th June, 2010. PNV
