After the examination of PW2, cross-examination was not done by the petitioner herein. The Court below observed that the petitioner is continuously seeking adjournment one after another on same reason and PW2 is a student. In such circumstances it was ordered that the petitioner should pay an amount of Rs.25,000/- to meet the flight charges of PW2 55 days in advance scheduled for her cross-examination. We do not find any infirmity in the order of the court below in directing the petitioner to pay amount towards travelling expenses. However, after hearing both w.p.c.28091/06 2 sides, we think it proper that instead of Rs.25,000/- an amount of Rs.15,000/- shall be deposited as directed by the court below. Ext.P7 is modified to the limited extent as stated above. Writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- P.R.RAMAN, JUDGE Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge.
