K.M. Mathew vs State Of Kerala And Anr on 19 November, 1991
Mr. Lalit, learned counsel, appearing for the
appellants submitted that the order of the Magistrate,
directing issuance of process cannot be held to be an
interlocutory order not amenable to the revisional
jurisdiction under Section 397 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure. He further contended that when the allegations
in the complaint read with the report of the Treasury
Officer obtained from him pursuant to an inquiry made under
sub-section (1) of Section 202, clearly bring out the case
under exception 8 to Section 400, the High Court in exercise
of its inherent jurisdiction under Section 482 ought not
have interfered with the order of the Sessions Judge, passed
in revisional jurisdiction. The learned counsel also
submitted that even if the remedy of approaching the
Magistrate by the accused under Section 205 for recalling
the process already issued is available in terms of the
judgment of this Court in Mathew's case, but the matter
being present in this court itself, this Court may consider
the averments made in the complaint petition to find out
whether any offence is made out and then would pass
appropriate order. Mr. Deshpande, the learned counsel,
appearing for the respondent, on the other hand contended
that the direction given by the High Court is fully
justified in the facts and circumstances of the case and no
interference at all is called for under Article 136 of the
Constitution of India.
