    The High Court of Bombay (Aurangabad Bench) dismissed the petitioner's writ petition challenging the trial court's rejection of his application under Section 311 CrPC to recall the victim (PW-5) for further cross-examination in a POCSO case. The court held that the petitioner failed to specify what important questions remained unasked or demonstrate that recalling the witness was essential for a just decision, and found no substantial grounds to interfere with the trial court's order.
