138 of ni act

niranjan (Querist) 12 July 2013 This query is : Resolved
In case under 138 of NIAct,the Public Prosecutor is engaged as Advocate for accused. I have come across only one judgment that Public Prosecutor cannot be Advocate for acused even in criminal private complaint. I believe that since 138 has been made criminal offence,it becomes economic offence against the State as per the object of the Act,and so Public Prosecutor cannot be on accused side.Can learned friends enlighten me or provide any judgment pl.?
