O R D E R

The petitioner's request to recall and cross examination of PW1 to PW18 under Section 311 of Code of Criminal Procedure was rejected. Challenging the same, the present petition is filed.

2. It is true that the Hon'ble Supreme Court in various cases condemned the practices of vexatious applications filed under Section 311 of Cr.PC to protract the proceedings.

3. Nevertheless, the petitioner submits that there are some favourable sections which are liberated to prove the witness that he has no intention to protract the proceedings and hence, by way of giving an opportunity to the petitioner, time frame can be fixed for completing the cross examination.

4. Under such circumstances, the petitioner is permitted to recall and cross examine the evidence of PW1 to PW18 on 2nd, 3rd and 4th of August,2017. It is made clear that the petitioner will not be permitted under any circumstances to exceed the cross examination after 04.08.2017.
