The concerned Court takes cognizance of the offence. After taking up cognizance of the offence, the complainant does not attend the proceedings for nearly six years. The Court left with no choice has closed/dismissed the complaint for its non-prosecution. The petitioner prefers a revision petition under Section 397 Cr.P.C. against the said order. The Revisional Court has dismissed the said revision petition on the ground that the revision petition was not maintainable in the light of the order of dismissal for non- prosecution which amounted to acquittal of the accused. In that light, reserving liberty to the petitioner to avail of such remedy as is available in law, the petition stands disposed. SD/- (M.NAGAPRASANNA) JUDGE PKS List No.: 1 Sl No.: 187
