IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.19607 of 2010 DAROGI PASWAN, SON OF ISHWAR PASWAN, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE SARARI, P.S. JAMUI, DISTT. JAMUI. ------- PETITIONER. Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2. 14.02.2011 Heard the parties. The petitioner has sought quashing of the order dated 13.4.2010 passed by the Additional Sessions Judge, F.T.C. IV, Jamui, in Sessions Trial No. 27 of 2009 by which he has rejected an application filed under Section 311 Cr. P.c. for summoning an official witness to prove his alibi. It has been categorically stated that the trial has not ended, therefore, this order has been passed on the premise that the case has not ended. Considering that equal opportunity should be given to the accused also to lead his evidence, in my view the trial court should take steps for examination of the witnesses so that the accused does not suffer any prejudice during trial. Considering the same, the application is allowed and the trial court is directed to issue bailable, non-bailable warrants as well as give Dasti Summons for examination of the witness for which the petitioner shall adequately pay. With these observations, the application is disposed of. S.Ali ( Anjana Prakash, J.)
