IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.18842 of 2010 THE STATE OF BIHAR ……………… Petitioner Versus SURAJ SINGH @ SURAJBHAN SINGH S/O LATE RAMNANDAN SINGH R/O MOHALLA SHANKARWAR TOLA, P.S. MOKAMA, DISTRICT- PATNA …………. Opposite Party ----------- 2. 04.02.2011 Heard the parties. The petitioner has sought quashing of the order dated 15.3.2010 passed by F.T.C.-IV, Begusarai in S.T.No. 292/98, by which he has allowed the application of the accused for marking the certified copy of judgment passed in S.T.No. 292/98 as exhibit. The petitioner is apprehensive that the Trial Court will be influenced by the judgment of acquittal, which has been filed by the accused persons and, therefore has opposed the marking of the same as an exhibit. Since the document marked as exhibit is a public document within the meaning of Section 74 of the Evidence Act. I see no illegality in the order. However, the Trial Court is cautioned not to read it as ‘evidence’ since even though the document may be admissible the relevancy of the same is a matter which the Trial Court will determine on the facts of the case at the relevant stage. With these observations the application is disposed off. The Trial Court is directed to conclude the trial within a period of three months from the date of the receipt of the order. Fahad.
