State Of U. P vs Kailash Nath Agarwal & Ors on 16 March, 1973
18.
So far as the locus of the present petitioner is concerned, it was
vehemently argued by learned APP as well as learned counsel for
original informant that present petitioner has no locus as the
decision relied on by them in case of State of U.P. Vs. Kailash Nath
Agarwal (supra) cannot be said to be an authority so far as the
issue on locus is concerned. The judgment of the Apex Court is to be
read on the basis of the facts discussed there under. Had there been
a clear question qua locus and clear finding of the court than only
it would be treated as binding precedent upon the court on point of
locus.

U.O.I. Thr. C.B.I. vs Narendra K.Amin on 10 February, 2014
The observations made by Division Bench of this Court in
case of. Central Bureau of Investigation Vs. N.K. Amin and other
(supra) has also been pressed into service to suggest that the locus
has not been denied even by the Division Bench also. Therefore the
question qua locus may not be held against the petitioner for
non-suiting her. The Court is of the considered view that the
question of locus on the part of the co-accused as such is not
required to be gone into in this petition. However it is required to
be noted that the number of citations and authorities pressed into
service on behalf of the informant had indicated
one proposition of law unequivocally that the Courts do not
acknowledge any substantive say or right to substantive say on the
part of co-accused, but that would not amount to completely denying
locus. In a given case court may examine the controversy raised on
behalf of the co-accused also if it is palpably wrong or erroneous.
In the instant case the development of events and record of the
order impugned in this petition clearly reveal that learned
Magistrate has considered all the aspects before concluding in
favour of the applicant for granting them pardon. Learned counsel
for the informant had taken the Court extensively to the order
passed to indicate that learned Magistrate has in fact linked and
appreciated the material existing on record to come to a conclusion
that if pardon is granted than it would surely help the cause of
justice and help in arriving at truth which may help successful
conclusion of trial.
