vss IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.842 OF 2008 WRIT PETITION NO.842 OF 2008 WRIT PETITION NO.842 OF 2008 Dr.Pankaj C. Gandhi ... Petitioner V/s. State of Maharashtra & Anr. ... Respondents Petitioner present in person Mr.R.M. Sanghvi for Respondent-in-person Mr.H.J. Dedhia, APP, for State CORAM: SMT.NISHITA SMT.NISHITA SMT.NISHITA MHATRE, J. MHATRE, J. MHATRE, J. DATED: JUNE 11, 2008 JUNE 11, 2008 JUNE 11, 2008 P.C.: P.C.: P.C.: . The petitioner has challenged the orders passed by the Metropolitan Magistrate, 21st Court, Bandra. He contends that voluntary statements made by him while he was being cross-examined have not been taken on record by the learned Magistrate. The learned Magistrate has observed that certain statements made by the petitioner-accused voluntarily have not been taken on record since they were not relevant. The accused was directed to give specific answers to the questions put to him by the complainant in the cross-examination. In this view of the matter, I do not see any reason to interfere with the orders of the Court. If the accused does volunteer answers, it is for the Court to decide whether they are relevant and whether they need to be recorded. There is no need for this Court to interfere in the conduct of a trial which is pending before the trial Court unless there is an apparent illegality. 2. Petition is rejected.
