Copy of Order

The court granted the petitioners' request to postpone cross-examination of the first three prosecution witnesses (PW1-PW3) under Section 231(2) of the CrPC until other eye-witnesses are examined, citing the Supreme Court principle that judges may exercise discretion to deviate from standard witness examination procedures when sufficient reasons are provided. The court found that allowing the postponement would not prejudice either party and would serve the interests of justice. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
