Dated : 4th November 2009 P.C. : 1.This Application has challenged the order dated 22.1.2009 of the Sessions Judge, Kolhapur, under which the trial of the case has been transferred from Ichalkaranji to Kolhapur. The learned Judge has given specific reasons why this is an exceptional case, which requires transfer. The learned Judge has relied upon the newspaper reports, violence that took place after the incident of mob, which is stated to have collected and attacked the office of accused No.1, who was the Applicant in that Application and also another incident of murder of a friend and the Personal Assistant of accused No.1 that took place after the incident in this 2 case. The learned Judge has also considered the beating of the stamp vendor, which came to be reported. 2.It is the case of the Applicant herein that the witnesses would find it difficult to go from Ichalkaranji. The distance between the two places is not as such as cannot be travelled in these days. It is in the interest of the Applicant to see that the accused is given a fair trial so that any order and judgment in the case upon the evidence being recorded does not come up for needless challenge. 3.There is no reason to interfere with the findings of the learned Judge, upon which the impugned order is passed. 4.Hence, the Criminal Revision Application is rejected.
