Reetuparna Barik v. Vishaaka Chandrashekar

20.03.2023

IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA

Item No.11 CRIMINAL REVISIONAL JURISDICTION Ct.No.34 dc.

C.R.R. 1038 of 2021 Reetuparna Barik versus Vishaaka Chandrashekar In Re: An Application under Sections 397/401 read with Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. Mr. Soumajit Chatterjee ... For the Opposite Party.

This revisional application was preferred challenging the judgement and order delivered by learned Additional Sessions Judge, Fast Track Court-II, Sealdah, 24-Parganas (South). The said judgement was delivered on 18.02.2021 by which the learned appellate court was pleased to modify the amount.

Having considered the period which has lapsed in the meantime particularly, more than two years, I am of the opinion that no interference is called for in the order so passed by the learned appellate court. However, the petitioner would be at liberty to present her case in course of trial in view of the amount which has been modified relating to interim monetary relief.

The learned trial court would consider the totality of the circumstances and thereafter would be at liberty to arrive at a fresh quantum, if required.

With the aforesaid observations, the revisional application being CRR 1038 of 2021 is disposed of. All pending connected applications, if any, are consequently disposed of.

All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
