                                                               ORDER

The present petition has been filed seeking to issue a direction to the trial Court in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 on the file of the III Additional District Judge (PCR Act) Cases, Madurai to keep the trial in abeyance until the third respondent files F.I.R and charge sheet as per order of this Court in Crl.OP(MD).Nos.10189, 10201, 10249, 10882 and 11577 of 2025 dated 28.11.2025.

(A).Facts leading to the filing of the present petition are as follows:

2.A criminal case was registered as against the petitioner in Crime No. 39 of 2020 on the file of the Melavalavu Police Station, Madurai District on 24.02.2020 wherein the petitioner was arrayed as accused No.1 along with four other named accused persons. The said F.I.R was registered on the complaint given by the third respondent namely Lakshmanan. The said F.I.R was registered for the offences under Section 147, 148, 447, 341, 294(b), 323, 2/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 324, 307 and 379 of I.P.C read with Section 3(2)(VA) of SC/ST (POA) Act, 2015.
3.A perusal of the above said F.I.R reveals that the petitioner and others are said to have attacked the defacto complainant at about 17.30 hours on 24.02.2020 with regard to a land dispute. One Suresh had sustained serious injuries in the said alleged incident. The F.I.R was registered at about 21.15 hours by recording the statement of the third respondent herein in the hospital. The said F.I.R after investigation has culminated in filing of the charge sheet in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 and pending trial on the file of the III Additional District Court (PCR Act) cases, madurai.
4.On the same date of occurrence at about 5.30 p.m, the present petitioner herein ( arrayed as A1 in Crime No.39 of 2020) had alleged that the father of the defacto complainant in Crime No.39 of 2020 and 12 others including one Suresh had trespassed into his property and destroyed the papayas trees and saplings. The petitioner herein had lodged a complaint before the Inspector of Police, Melavalavu Police Station on 26.02.2020 for which CSR receipt was issued in CSR.No.103 of 2020. However, CSR was later closed by the police officials on the ground that the parties could not be contacted and CSR remained pending beyond six months. Later the petitioner herein had filed Crl.M.P.No.4339 of 2023 before the Judicial Magistrate, Melur under Section 156(3) Cr.P.C seeking a direction as against the police 3/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 for registration of F.I.R. An order came to be passed by the Judicial Magistrate on 12.07.2024 to conduct an enquiry and register an F.I.R, if any cognizable offence is made out. The concerned police conducted an enquiry and filed a closure report.
5.The petitioner herein had filed Crl.M.P.No.4054 of 2024 as a protest petition. Since there was no progress in the protest petition, the petitioner had prepared Crl.O.P(MD).No.11577 of 2025 seeking a direction to expedite the disposal of the complaint. This Court by an order dated 28.11.2025 had transferred the investigation to CBCID for fresh complaint and closed Crl.M.P.No.4054 of 2024 which was pending on the file of the Judicial Magistrate, Melur. Thereafter, the investigation got transferred to CBCID Madurai Rural and an F.I.R came to be registered in Crime No.1 of 2026 on 19.01.2026 as against the third respondent's father Kusalavan and 12 others for the alleged offences under Sections 147, 148, 341, 427, 294(b), 323, 324 and 506(ii) I.P.C. Investigation is still pending.
6. In the meantime, one of the prime witnesses in Crime No.39 of 2020 namely Suresh was murdered and an F.I.R came to be registered in Crime No. 202 of 2022 on 18.12.2022. In the said F.I.R, the petitioner herein is also one of the accused person. Citing the alleged involvement of the petitioner in the 4/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 murder of prime witness in Crime No.39 of 2020, the bail granted in favour of the petitioner in Crime No.39 of 2020 was cancelled by the trial Court on 17.02.2025. Challenging the same, the petitioner herein along with other co-accused had challenged the cancellation of the bail by way of Crl.A. (MD).Nos.359, 346, 360 and 326 of 2025 before this Court. By way of an order dated 09.04.2025, this Court had set aside the cancellation of the bail order of the trial Court and restored the bail. A further direction was issued to tag Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021and Crime No.202 of 2022 (PCR.No.17 of 2023) to be tried together by the Principal District Judge, Madurai and the concerned Trial Judge was directed to take a call and order for joint trial of both cases.

This order was put to challenge before the Hon'ble Supreme Court in SLP. (Crl).Nos. 6647–6650 of 2025. The Hon'ble Supreme Court was pleased to set aside the order of joint trial and proceeded to restore the order of the trial Court cancelling the bail of the petitioner and others. There was a further direction to the trial Court to conduct trial independently, purely on merits and in accordance with law.

7.Thereafter, the trial started in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 before the III Additional District Court (PCR Act) Cases, Madurai. PW1 was chief examined on 03.10.2024 and he was cross examined on 17.02.2025, 04.03.2025 and 24.03.2025. Thereafter, PW2 to PW8 were chief examined 5/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 and cross examined between 14.10.2024 to 26.11.2025. PW9 and PW10 were chief examined on 15.11.2024 but they were not cross examined. PW11 to PW14 were chief examined between 27.11.2024 and 26.12.2024. While the case was posted for cross examination of PW1 to PW14, the present petition has been filed on 05.01.2026 seeking a direction to keep the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 in abeyance till a charge sheet is lad in Crime No.1 of 2026 pending on the file of CBCID, Madurai Rural.

(B).Submissions of the counsels appearing on either side are as follows:

8.According to the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner, it is a case and counter case. The complaint in Crime No.39 of 2020 alleges that an incident is said to have taken place at about 5.30 p.m on 24.02.2020. At the same time, another occurrence is said to have happened as per allegation in Crime No.1 of 2026 on the file of the CBCID Madurai Rural. The version found in both the complaint cannot be true in view of the fact that if one of the version is true, the others would become automatically falsified.

Therefore, both the F.I.R emanate out of a single transaction. Though an F.I.R was registered immediately as against the petitioner, the complaint lodged by the petitioner was closed and even after a direction was issued by the Judicial Magistrate, only a closure report was filed by the police authorities. 6/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 Therefore, the petitioner was constrained to approach this Court for transfer of investigation. Only thereafter, an F.I.R came to be registered as against the third respondent herein and others for the incident that had happened at about 5.30 p.m on 24.02.2020 wherein the petitioner and others were attacked by the third respondent and others.

9. The learned counsel had further submitted that when the F.I.R was registered on the complaint of the petitioner much belatedly that should not take away the right of the petitioner for having a simultaneous trial along with Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021. He had relied upon a Full Bench judgment of this Court reported in 2024 SCC Online Mad 10644 : (2024) 5 CTC 1 (FB) (T.Balaji and another Vs. State Rep.by the Inspector of Police, New Washermenpet Police Station) wherein Paragraph No.68(B)(iii) and contended that where a final report is filed in one and a closure report in another case, the trial Court has to wait for the decision in the protest petition. The learned counsel had also relied upon Paragraph No.69 (d) and contended that the trial of case and counter case shall be held simultaneous before the same Court as per guidelines set out in Paragraph No.68(B) of the said judgment.

10.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner had further submitted that as per Tamil Nadu Police Standing Order (PSO) 566, the 7/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 authorities have to conduct an investigation with regard to a case and a counter case and considering the rival version of the same incident. Any failure to adhere to PSO 566, would vitiate the prosecution. He also relied upon a decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court reported in (2001) 2 SCC 688 (Sudhir and others etc., Vs.State of M.P.ETC) wherein the Hon'ble Supreme Court has held that the cases arising out of a case and counter case in one incident should be tried by the same Judge for consistency and the judgment must be pronounced by the same Judge one after other. Hence, he prayed for allowing the petition.

11.Per contra, the learned Public Prosecutor appearing for the respondents submitted that the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 is in an advanced stage. Therefore, in such circumstances, the request of the petitioner cannot be entertained even as per decision of the Hon'ble Full Bench cited by the petitioner. He had further submitted that the Hon'ble Apex Court in SLP.(Crl).Nos.6647 – 6650of 2025 dated 19.12.2025 had categorically held that the incident is distinct one and the trial Court shall conduct a trial independently, purely on merits and in accordance with law. Only after the orders of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, the petitioner has approached this Court to stall the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021. 8/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026

12.The learned Additional Public Prosecutor had further submitted that as per direction of this Court in Crl.OP(MD).No.11577 of 2025, the case files in recordings of CSR.No.103 of 2020 have been handed over to CBCID and they have already registered an F.I.R in Crime No.1 of 2026. No direction was issued in Crl.OP(MD).No.11577 of 2025 to stall or stay the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 till a charge sheet is laid by CBCID. Hence, he prayed for dismissal of the petition.

13.The learned counsel appearing for the defacto complainant had relied upon the Full Bench decision cited supra and contended that the petitioner and other accused persons have participated in the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 and it is in advanced stage and therefore, in such circumstances, the question of keeping the trial in abeyance would not arise. He further submitted that the provisions of 528 BNSS, 2023 (482 Cr.P.C) cannot be invoked except in cases where there is a possibility of abuse of process or in order to meet the ends of justice. In the present case, the petitioner had made several attempts to stall the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021. Both the occurrences have taken place in two different places and therefore, this cannot be considered to be a case and counter case attracting PSO 566 or the decision of the Hon'ble Full Bench. Hence, he prayed for dismissal of the petition.

9/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026

14.I have considered the submissions made on either side and perused the material records.

(C).Discussion:

15.The primary contention of the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner is that since Crime No.39 of 2020 (Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021) and Crime No.1 of 2026 arise out of a case and counter case, the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 shall be kept in abeyance till a charge sheet is laid in Crime No.1 of 2026. As per the judgment of the Hon'ble Full Bench, the trial has to be conducted simultaneously and it is for the trial Court to appreciate the evidence and arrive at a finding as to who is the aggressor and who is the defender. Therefore, in such circumstances, if the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 is proceeded independently, that would cause him great prejudice.

16.The petitioner herein is A1 in Crime No.39 of 2020 which has culminated in filing of the charge sheet in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021. The charge sheet came to be laid on 09.11.2020 and the examination of the witnesses started only from October 2024. PW1 to PW8 have been chief and cross examined on 26.11.2025. PW9 and PW10 have been chief examined on 15.11.2024, but they were not cross examined. PW 11 to PW14 were chief examined on 27.11.2024 and 03.12.2024 and 26.12.2024. At this stage without cross examined PW9 to PW14, the petitioner has approached this 10/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 Court to stall the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021.

17.The petitioner herein has filed Crl.OP(MD).No.7198 of 2020 before this Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C to transfer the investigation in CSR No. 103 of 2020 pending on the file of Melur Police Station to any other police office to be investigated simultaneously along with Crime No.39 of 2020. When this petition came up for hearing, the police authorities informed the Court that CSR.No.103 of 2020 was closed as 'mistake of fact'. Therefore, Crl.OP(MD).No.7198 of 2020 was dismissed as infructuous by this Court on 06.04.2023. This was the first attempt made by the present petitioner seeking transfer of investigation in CSR.No.103 of 2020 for being simultaneously investigated along with Crime No.39 of 2020.

18.The petitioner and other accused persons in Crime No.39 of 2020 were arrested on 05.08.2020 and later, the accused persons were enlarged on bail by the trial Court on 09.09.2020. While the petitioner was on bail, he along with others are said to have committed murder of the prime witness in Crime No.39 of 2020 (Suresh) on 18.12.2022 which resulted in registration of F.I.R in Crime No.202 of 2022. Therefore, the bail was cancelled by the High Court in Crl.OP(MD).Nos.10559 and 10561 of 2020 on 31.03.2023. The petitioner and others had approached the trial Court seeking bail and the 11/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 same was rejected by the trial Court. Challenging the same, the petitioner and others have preferred Crl.A.(MD).Nos.112, 185, 188 and 189 of 2024 which was dismissed by this Court on 06.09.2024. Thereafter, the accused persons had again approached the trial Court seeking bail but was rejected on 17.02.2025 and challenging the same, the petitioner herein and other accused persons have filed Crl.A(MD).Nos. 359, 346, 360 and 326 of 2025 before this Court and same was allowed on 09.04.2025 restoring the bail of the accused persons.

19.In Paragraph No.34 of the said order, this Court has observed that Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 shall be tried along with PRC.No.17 of 2023 which arose out of Crime No.202 of 2022. This order was put to challenge before the Hon'ble Supreme Court in SLP.(Crl).Nos.6647-6650 of 2025. The Hon'ble Supreme Court by an order dated 19.12.2025 had reversed the order of this Court and cancelled the bail and also directed that the Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 to be tried independently and not along with Crime No.202 of 2022.

20.The narration of the above said facts would make it clear that the Hon'ble Supreme Court has specifically held that the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 has to be conducted independently, purely on merits and in accordance with law and in such circumstances, the request made by the petitioner herein 12/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 again to stall the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 awaiting the charge sheet in Crime No.1 of 2026 on the file of CBCID, Madurai Rural is only an attempt to circumvent the orders of the Hon'ble Supreme Court.

21. The Hon'ble Full Bench in a decision reported in 2024 SCC Online Mad 10644 ( T.Balaji & another Vs. State rep.by the Inspector of Police, New Washermenpet Police Station, Chennai ) in Paragraph Nos.55, 68 and 69(b) has held as follows:

“55.The next question is whether a failure to adhere to PSO 566, ipso facto, vitiate the prosecution? It is well-settled that any defect in the investigation does not automatically vitiate trial unless a miscarriage of justice is shown (vide H.N Rishbud v State, AIR 1955 SC 196). In some cases where a procedural defect is shown at the earliest point of time, it would be possible for the superior court to remedy the situation by setting aside the final reports and issuing directions for proper investigation and filing of the final report. However, where the case is at an advanced stage a plea of non-compliance of PSO 566 cannot be acceded to automatically unless a miscarriage of justice is demonstrated. Whether miscarriage of justice has occurred or not will depend on facts which must be assessed from case to case, and we need say no more on this aspect at this stage except observing that the directions contained in paragraph 35, would ensure that such cases would be few and far between.
68. We expect the executive to take note of the aforesaid position and effect necessary amendments to the PSO to bring it in 13/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 consonance with the directions issued above.

B. For the Courts

(a) Pre-Cognizance stage:

i. While entertaining an application under Section 173(4) BNSS 2023, the Magistrate shall ensure whether the complainant had approached the superior police officers as set out therein.
ii. If the Magistrate is satisfied that the complainant had approached the superior police officer as set out in Section 173(4) BNSS 2023, he may proceed to take the application on file and deal with the same under Section 175(3) BNSS 2023.
iii. Where a final report is filed in one case and a closure report in the other case, the Magistrate will follow the procedure in Bhagwant Singh v. Commr. of Police, (1985) 2 SCC 537 : 1983 LW (Cri) 72 (S.N.). Till a decision in the protest petition is arrived, the inquiry or the trial in the pending case where the final report has been filed shall be kept in abeyance.

iv. Where two final reports are filed in a case and counter case, it is the duty of the Magistrate to scrutinize the final reports carefully. If it is found that the final reports put forward inconsistent rival versions of the same incident (ie., if one version is true the other must necessarily be false), or where it is found that the IO has filed two final reports mechanically without properly investigating and finding out the true aggressor the Magistrate shall return the final reports and direct the IO to come up with a definitive case.

v. In rare cases, where such filial reports are not screened out at the level of the Magistrate, and cognizance has been inadvertently taken, such orders may be challenged under Section 528 BNSS 2023 14/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 in which case the orders of cognizance may be set aside, depending upon the stage of the cases, with a consequential direction to follow PSO 566.

(b) Post Cognizance and Trial in a case and case in counter:

i. If the Magistrate finds that the two final reports are rival versions of the same incident, but both parties are found to have engaged in acts of aggression etc., he may take cognizance of both final reports. In such cases, the Magistrate shall follow the procedure prescribed in Ekambaram v. Sundaramurthy and State, 1988 LW (Cri) 127, which we have extracted in paragraph 56, supra.
ii. If one case is exclusively triable by a Court of Session and the other case is triable by a Magistrate, the Magistrate shall commit both the case and counter case to the Court of Session for trial as prescribed by Section 362 BNSS 2023 (Section 323 Cr.P.C.), who shall thereafter proceed in accordance with the directions contained in paragraph 56 supra.
ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS REFERRED
69. In the light of the above discussion, the following are our answers to the questions referred to us vide order dated 21.03.2024:
a......
b. The consequences of non-compliance with PSO 566 would depend upon the stage at which such an objection is raised. It is the duty of the Magistrate to screen out final reports which are filed in inconsistent rival versions of the same incident ie., where one rival version is true the other must be necessarily false, by returning with a direction to follow PSO 566. Where the Magistrate inadvertently takes cognizance, the error may be set right by the High Court under 15/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026 Section 528 BNSS, 2023 if the same is raised at an early stage. If, however, the trial in such cases is allowed to go on and has reached an advanced stage, a plea of non-compliance with the PSO will not ipso facto vitiate trial unless and until a demonstrable case of prejudice or miscarriage is made out.

22.In case, if the petitioner is of the opinion that Crime No.1 of 2026 and Crime No.39 of 2020 arise out of a case and a counter case and he was fighting before various forum for registration of F.I.R on his complaint, he should have taken immediate steps to keep in abeyance the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 till F.I.R is registered on his complaint. However, the petitioner and others have chosen to participate in the trial and out of 20 witnesses, already 14 of them have been chief examined. PW1 to PW8 have already been cross examined before filing of this petition. In such circumstances, it is clear that the present application is filed much belatedly.

23.As pointed out by the Hon'ble Full Bench, when the trial is in an advance stage, a plea of non-compliance with PSO 566 cannot be raised and the same cannot be considered to vitiate the trial. The petitioner is not able to demonstrate that a prejudice or miscarriage would be made out in case if the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 is not in abeyance waiting the charge sheet in Crime No.1 of 2026 on the file of the CBCID, Madurai Rural. 16/19 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 25/03/2026 02:46:29 pm ) Crl.OP(MD).No.548 of 2026

24.The prayer in the present petition is to keep the trial in Spl.S.C.No. 25 of 2021 in abeyance till the F.I.R and charge sheet are laid as per order of this Court in Crl.OP(MD).Nos.10189, 10201, 10249, 10882 & 11577 of 2025 dated 28.11.2025. Admittedly, the F.I.R has already been registered as per order of this Court dated 28.11.2025 in Crime No.1 of 2026 by CBCID, Madurai Rural on 19.01.2026. In such circumstances, the trial in Spl.S.C.No. 25 of 2021 cannot await for completion of the investigation in Crime No.1 of 2026 especially when the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021 is in the advance stage.

25.In the light of the above said facts, it is clear that this is the third attempt to stall the trial in Spl.S.C.No.25 of 2021. When the petitioner has participated in the trial and it is in the advance stage, now the petitioner cannot complain that he would be put to prejudice, if the trial in Spl.S.C.No. 25 of 2021 proceeds without waiting for the charge sheet to be laid in Crime No.1 of 2026.

(D).Conclusion:

26..In view of the above said facts, there are no merits in the petition. This Criminal Original Petition stands dismissed. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
