THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.7278 of 2011 ORDER: This criminal petition is filed by the petitioner seeking to set aside the order dated 04.08.2011 passed by the I-Additional Sessions Judge, Krishna, Machilipatnam, in Crl.M.P.No.240 of 2011 in S.C.No.335 of 2008, whereby the petition filed by the petitioner and other accused in this case requesting the court to recall P.W.7 for further cross-examination was dismissed. Heard. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that in the interest of justice and to arrive at just decision of the case, the petitioner may be given an opportunity to cross-examine PW.7. He further assured that on the day when the learned Sessions Judge posts the matter for cross-examination of PW.7 by recalling him, the petitioner will complete the cross-examination of PW.7 on the same day itself. In view of the above, this Court directs the petitioner to file a fresh application before the trial Court to recall PW.7 for the purpose of cross-examination. On filing such application, the trial Court is directed to allow the petition and fix a date for cross-examination of PW.7, and thereupon the petitioner shall cross-examine PW.7 on the date fixed for such purpose and he shall pay costs of Rs.1,000/- to PW.7 on the same day, and on his failure to do so, the learned trial Judge is at liberty to proceed with the matter in accordance with law. With the above directions, this criminal petition is disposed of. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, filed in this criminal petition shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO 19.08.2011 v v
