Crl. Misc. No.M-25452 of 2010 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Crl. Misc. No. M-25452 of 2010 Date of Decision: August 31, 2010 Nirvail Singh and another …..Petitioners Vs. Nirmaljit Kaur and another …..Respondents CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI. -.- Present:- Mr.D.P.S. Kahlon, Advocate for the petitioners. -.- M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) The petitioners seek the transfer of proceedings under Section 125 Cr.P.C. launched at the instance of respondent No.1-wife of petitioner No.1 and criminal proceedings under Sections 498-A, 406, 323 IPC from Faridabad to Chandigarh or any other place of competent jurisdiction, inter- alia on the ground that petitioner No.1 is handicapped to the extent of 60% on account of disability of left lower limb and that petitioner No.2 is an old lady. Crl. Misc. No.M-25452 of 2010 [2] After hearing counsel for the petitioners and going through the contents of the petition, I do not find any sufficient ground to transfer the proceedings in the abovesaid two cases as while transferring a case from one place to another convenience of both the parties is to be taken into consideration. The transfer of the proceedings under Section 125 Cr.P.C. from Faridabad to any other place will certainly cause inconvenience to the respondent- wife. The petitioners can request the Courts at Faridabad to fix same date in two cases. In case any such request is made, the said request will be acceded to by the Courts hearing the petition under Section 125 Cr.P.C. and trying the petitioners in FIR No.130 dated May 14, 2007. In case of old age of petitioner No.2, an application for exemption from personal appearance is filed, the same can be allowed by the trial Court subject to any conditions imposed. It will be open to the trial Court to exempt the personal appearance of both the petitioners in case the circumstances so warranted. In case the personal appearance of petitioners is exempted, it will be open for the criminal trial Court to record the evidence as per provisions of Section 273 Cr.P.C. in presence of counsel for the petitioners. With the above observation this petition is disposed of. August 31, 2010 (M.M.S.BEDI) sanjay JUDGE
