Mr. Nandy, learned advocate produces the case diary and draws the attention of this court to the statement of the witnesses as also the victim. It has been informed that the learned trial court is yet to consider the charges.

Having regard to the stage at which the petitioner approached this court, I grant liberty to the petitioner to canvas the points of the revisional application at the stage of the consideration of charges before the learned trial court.
