the Trial Court considered the material to issue process against the accused No.1 and 2 under Section 204 and comes to the conclusion that material available on record is sufficient to proceed against only accused No.2. The said order was challenged before the Revisional Court. The Revisional Court considering the grounds urged in the revision and appreciating the material on record comes to the conclusion that it is a fit case to proceed against both accused Nos.1 and 2 and allowed the revision petition. The said revisional court order is challenged before this Court.
4. The main ground urged in the petition is that the Trial Court rightly dismissed the case in respect of accused No.1, but Revisional Court has committed an error in proceeding against accused No.1 and the offence invoked against the accused is Section 500 of IPC and the sworn statement of the petitioner is coupled with Ex.P1 to P7 which clearly makes out a prima facie case to take cognizance of the alleged offence of 500 of IPC against accused No.1 also and the same is taken note of by the Revision Court in paragraph 15 of its Judgment. When such reasoned order has been passed, the

question of entertaining this petition does not arise. Hence, no ground is made out to entertain the petition under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. Accordingly, the petition is dismissed.
