2. PUBLIC PROSECUTOR (AP) The Court made the following:
ORDER:
2 The Criminal Revision Case has been filed under Sections 397 & 401 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 1 challenging the interlocutory order dated 26.03.2024 in Crl.M.P.No.240 of 2024 in S.C.No.137 of 2018 passed by the learned V Additional District and Sessions Judge-cum-Special Court for Trial of Offences against Women, West Godavari, Eluru.
Heard the learned Counsel for the Petitioner, learned Counsel for Respondent Nos.2 & 3 and the learned Assistant Public Prosecutor. Perused the record.
The order impugned is dated 26.03.2024 in Crl.M.P.No.240 of 2024 in S.C.No.137 of 2018 passed by the learned V Additional District and Sessions Judge-cum-Special Court for Trial of Offences against Women, West Godavari, Eluru, whereby an application filed for recalling PW.1 for further chief examination was dismissed. Aggrieved by that order, the Petitioner has preferred the Revision Case.
Indeed, a revision against interlocutory order is not maintainable as per Section 397(2) of ‘the Cr.P.C.’ The order impugned is undoubtedly an interim order, as it merely dismissed the re-calling of PW.1 for further chief examination.
