THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.1766 OF 2003 JUDGMENT: The petitioner filed a private complaint against respondents 1 to 4 herein alleging the offences punishable under Sections 420, 467, 471 read with 120-B IPC and the Court below referred the same to the Police of Mirchowk Police Station for investigation and report as provided under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C. The Sub-Inspector of Police, Mirchowk Police Station, Hyderabad, registered the same as a case in Crime No.47 of 1995 and after investigation, filed a charge sheet and the same was numbered as C.C.No.229 of 1996 on the file of the XVI Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad. During the course of trial, the petitioner herein i.e., the complainant was examined as P.W-1 and four more witnesses-P.Ws.2 to 5 were examined on her behalf and Exs.P-1 to P-18 were marked. The learned Magistrate having considered the said oral and documentary evidence came to the conclusion that the prosecution miserably failed in brining home the guilt of the accused and accordingly, acquitted them of the said charges. The State which filed the said C.C. before the Court below has not chosen to challenge the order of acquittal of the accused passed by the Court below and hence, the de facto complainant who was examined as P.W-1 filed this Revision invoking the jurisdiction of the Court under Sections 397 and 401 Cr.P.C. It should be remembered that it is a Revision against the order of acquittal of the accused, where the scope of Revision is very much restricted. Even if this Court ultimately holds that the respondents herein are guilty of the offences with which they are charged, this Court can only remand the matter to the Court below for fresh disposal of the matter, but cannot convert the said finding of acquittal into conviction. Further, though Revision was admitted as early as on 10.02.2004, notices are not served on the unofficial respondents. As this is a Revision against the acquittal of the accused and the notices are not served on respondents 1 to 4-accused, this Court sees no merits in this Revision and accordingly, the same is dismissed. __________________________________ JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA 18th November 2010 DR
