Having regard to the grounds raised, the documents placed on record and the submissions addressed at the Bar, I am of the view that there is justification for directing that the stay presently ordered in respect of further proceedings in C.C.No.1039/01 presently pending trial before the JFCM Court, Chalakudi be continued till such time as the learned Magistrate takes a decision on Ext.P5. That is to say, if the Magistrate becomes inclined to have Ext.P5 enquired into under Section 156(3) by an investigating agency till such time as the said agency files the final report or if the learned Magistrate decides to try Ext.P5 as a private complaint by himself, till such time as the trial in Ext.P5 is taken up. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. No costs. srd PIUS C.KURIAKOSE, JUDGE
