Vs.

Union of India, Rep. By Deputy Superintendent of Police, National Investigation Agency, Chennai Branch.

...Respondent

Prayer: Petition filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. r/w. Section 528 of BNSS praying, to call for the records in Crl.M.P.No.2223 of 2024 on the file of the Special Court under the National Investigation Agency Act, 2008 and set aside the same and consequently, direct the Sessins Judge. For Petitioner : Mr.R.Sankarasubbu For Respondent : Mr.R.Karthikeyan, Special Public Prosecutor

ORDER

(Order of the Court was made by M.S.RAMESH, J.) The prayer made by the petitioner before the Special Court under the National Investigation Agency Act, 2008 in the petition filed under Section 207 Cr.P.C., is to peruse and access the electronic records produced before the Court, which application came to be allowed by the Special Court through an order dated 13.11.2024. In the said order, the Special Court had permitted the petitioner to peruse and access the electronic records in Sl.Nos.1 to 23, which is precisely the prayer sought for by the petitioner.

2. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner requires the copies of the documents in Sl.Nos.1 to 23, which was not in the prayer before the Special Court. While that being so, we fail to understand as to how he can now improve the scope of the prayer in the petition under Section 207 Cr.P.C.

3. Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition stands dismissed.
