ORDER

1.

The instant revision petition is preferred by the complainant challenging the order in C.C.1434 of 1999 on the file of the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Ernakulam. As per the impugned order, the learned Magistrate had discharged the accused u/s 245(2) of the Cr.P.C.

2.

I have perused the order impugned. Paragraph 3 of the order dated 9.11.2004 reads as follows:- "The accused is on bail. Today, when the complaint was taken up, the complainant was absent and the accused was present. In the previous posting date also the complainant was absent and he was directed to be present for today. All along the previous posting, the complainant remained absent. counsel for the complainant applied and the application is disallowed. Continuous lethargic attitude of the complainant is a ground to hold that the

Crl.R.P.197/05 charge levelled against the accused is groundless. No evidence is adduced. The case cannot be proceeded with. Further trial of the accused is an abuse of process of Court.:

It was on that basis, that the learned Magistrate had passed the impugned order.

3.

Before this Court, the revision petition had come up for hearing on 7.8.2015, 10.8.2015, 11.8.2015, 12.8.2015, 13.8.2015, 17.8.2015 and finally today. There was none to represent the petitioner.

In view of the above, I do not find any reason to interfere with the impugned order. Hence, the revision petition is dismissed.
