During the course of trial, an application under Section 319 Cr.P.C. was moved pursuant to which the petitioners have been summoned to face trial as additional accused. In the considered view of this Court, in the absence of any challenge to the said order, the petitioners would certainly be required to participate in the trial and therefore, would have to submit to its jurisdiction. Consequently, without commenting on the issue any further, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the petitions with a direction to the petitioners to submit themselves to the jurisdiction of the learned trial Court on 15.3.

While doing so, the Court shall keep in consideration the contention of the petitioners that no additional material has been brought on record by way of evidence except the one which was brought before the police and on the basis of which they were placed in column No.2.
