The High Court allowed Pawan Preet Singh's recall application, setting aside the Magistrate's orders that had closed his opportunity to cross-examine the prosecution witness (P.W.1) in a Section 138 Negotiable Instruments Act case. The Court prioritized trial fairness over potential prejudice to the prosecution, granting one final opportunity to complete cross-examination subject to payment of ₹50,000 cost to the complainant within two weeks. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
