Gopal Krishna Behera (Advocate Orissa High Court Cuttack.)     17 June 2009

Summon to Witness.

     The order allowing or disallowing an application of the complainant to summon witness under section 311 Cr.P.C. is an interlocutory in nature and hence revision application U/Sec 397 Cr.P.C., challenging such order is not maintainable.

 A criminal miscellaneous application would lie.

hello Sir,

u r correct in such case the Revision Petition is not maintainable.

reference can be had to a latest judgment of Hon'ble SC

Sethuraman v/s Rajamanickam 2009 (2) Criminal Court Cases 706 (SC)

i dont know whether this reporter is available at ur place.

u can find this judgment in full text from the official website of SC www.supremecourtofindia.nic.in

sorry i did not reply in toto

when the revision is not maintainable then u r left with no other remedy but to go for Criminal Misc. Petition only
