R. Govindaswamy vs The State (Circle Inspector Of Police) on 4 August, 1959
12. Before leaving the case, I may also observe that Section 436, Cr.PC. does not authorise the Sessions Judge to direct further inquiry by a particular Magistrate. The learned Sessions Tudge ought to have directed the District Magistrate by him if or by a Subordinate Magistrate to make the further inquiry, leaving the Dist. Magistrate a discretion as to the selection of the Magistrate. See Ramaswami Thevar v. M. Subban A.I.R. 1930 Mad 983.
