oHE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.8702 of 2011 ORDER: This Criminal Petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C., to set aside the order dated 20.6.2011 passed in Crl.R.P.No.9 of 2011 in Crl.M.P.No.419 of 2011 in C.C.No.379 of 2010 by the First Additional Sessions Judge, Kadapa, wherein and whereby the revision filed by the 1st respondent herein was allowed setting aside the order dated 1.3.2011 passed in Crl.M.P.No.419 of 2011 in C.C.No.379 of 2010 by the II Additional Judicial Magistrate of the First Class, Kadapa. The petitioner was facing the trial for the offences punishable under Sections 498-A of IPC and Sections 3 and 4 of Dowry Prohibition Act. Heard. The main contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that on filing of a revision by the defacto-complainant, the learned Sessions Judge even without issuing notice to the petitioner herein dealt with the matter and passed the impugned order and hence he prays to allow the petition. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and in view of the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court is of the view that when the revision is filed by the revision petitioner, the other side should be given an opportunity of hearing the revision, but the appellate court even without hearing the other side, has passed the impugned order. Hence the impugned order is liable to be set aside. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is allowed setting aside the order dated 20.6.2011, passed in Crl.R.P.No.9 of 2011 in Crl.M.P.No.419 of 2011 in C.C.No.379 of 2010, by the First Additional Sessions Judge, Kadapa, and order to restore the same to its file. Further, the learned Sessions Judge, Kadapa, is directed to issue notice to the petitioner herein and hear the matter afresh and dispose of the same in accordance with law. Miscellaneous Petitions filed in this Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. _________________ RAJA ELANGO,J Date:21.09.2011. Gk.
