I have submitted sufficient data to the investigating police officer, regarding the faults in their investigation, which made them to reopen the case. The matter is in ADJ court, commitment is completed and bail of all the accused has been done. Now the IO has submitted one application to the SDJM court for reopening the case file. I want to know, whether Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate or Additional District Judge has the power to order the IO for reopening the case, when the case file is with ADJ.

The IO need not get permission. He can also do the further investigation, while the case is pending in the court.

LOt of thanks to both the above experts.As of now, I heard that the appeal of the IO to SDJM was forwarded to the ADJ. But the ADJ denied to do on that appeal and has instructed the IO to again appeal before the him through Public prosecutor. The IO will again appeal tomorrow to ADJ. What can be the interest and reason for denying the forwarding letter of SDJM by ADJ?
