Pratap vs State Of U.P on 22 December, 1972
8. It seems from the decision that the High Court itself exercised the revisional power suo motu under S. 439 of Old Cr.P.C. That decision was rendered by the Supreme Court under S. 439 of the Old Criminal Procedure Code of 1898, corresponding to S. 401 of the new Code of Criminal Procedure of 1973. That was a case, where the brother of the deceased also filed a Revision Petition to enhance the sentence. In those circumstances the Supreme Court said that the High Court could exercise the Revisional power to enhance the sentence even though the brother of the deceased filed a Revision to enhance the sentence, thereby drawing the attention of the Court to improper sentence. Such was not the case before us. Besides nowhere in the said decision of the Supreme Court it has been stated by the Supreme Court that a third party like the Petitioner Association can intervene in a criminal proceeding like the bail petition or a petition to cancel the bail and put forth their contentions in support of the victim or the complainant. Therefore the decision will not be of any help of the Petitioner-Association in Crl.M.P. No. 4780 of 1997 to contend that they have got a right to intervene and take up the cause of the victim woman in this case.
