ORAL ORDER

This matter was called in the morning, no representation. However, learned counsel for the petitioner appeared in the afternoon and made his submission.

2. The Trial Court has considered the defence of the accused and considering the same, in paragraph No.11(p) observed that with regard to Cheque was lost and also Cheque was stolen, complaint was given and the same was not produced before the Trial Court and no rebuttal evidence before the Trial Court with regard to the defence which was taken. Even the revision petitioner also not entered into the witness box and though the cross-examination of P.W.1 was made at length, nothing is elicited from the mouth of P.W.1 and Trial Court given the reasoning in paragraph No.11(p) as well as 11(q) and 11(r) that no rebuttal evidence before the Court.

HC-KAR

3. The First Appellate Court also having taken note of material available on record, re-appreciated both oral and documentary evidence available on record in paragraph Nos.13, 14 and 15. No doubt in reply notice marked at Ex.P1, an allegation is made that Mangalamma made a theft of Cheque book of accused and she has fabricated the Cheque and accused has not signed any Cheque. But, during the course of cross-examination of P.W.1, nowhere such suggestion has been put to P.W.1 and the same is considered in paragraph No.15 of the judgment of the First Appellate Court. When such reasoned order is passed by the Trial Court and the First Appellate Court, I do not find any ground to consider the revision petition and unless the reasoning of the Trial Court and the First Appellate Court suffers from its legality and correctness, the revisional power cannot be exercised. Hence, no ground is made out to entertain the revision petition. Accordingly, the revision petition is dismissed. Sd/- (H.P.SANDESH) JUDGE ST List No.: 1 Sl No.: 16
