SRI.M.C.ASHI, PP THIS CRIMINAL MISC. CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON

27.01.2025, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING:

ORDER

Although the learned counsel for the petitioner strenuously contended that the proceedings are liable to be quashed, in so far as the contentions are based on the materials produced by the prosecution, appropriate remedy is to move a petition for discharge before the trial court.

The Crl.M.C is therefore closed, without prejudice to the petitioner’s right to seek discharge before the trial court. If charge has been framed, the contentions raised in this Crl.M.C can be urged during final hearing of the case.
