             Dated this the 25th day of October, 2024



                                    ORDER

These cases are connected and therefore, I am

disposing of these cases by a common order.

2. I will first consider Crl.M.C. Nos. 5337/2015 &

5338/2015. The petitioners in these cases are accused in CC

No. 197/2010 and 190/2010 on the file of the Chief Judicial

Magistrate Court, Kollam. CC No. 197/2010 is taken on file by

the court based on the final report in Crime No. 472/2010 of

Kollam West Police Station. Crime No. 472/2010 was

registered against the petitioners in that case and two others

alleging offences punishable under Secs. 384, 465, 447,427,

451, 294(b) r/w 34 IPC. The offence under Secs.13 and 17 of

the Kerala Money Lenders Act, 1958 is also alleged. The

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 petitioners in Crl.M.C. No. 5338/2015 are accused in CC No.

190/2010 which arises from Crime No. 534/2010 of Kollam

West Police Station, which was registered under Secs. 468,

420, 406 and 34 IPC and also under Secs. 13 and 17 of the

Kerala Money Lenders Act, 1958. The petitioners in CC No.

197/2010 and 190/2010 along with other accused were

acquitted by the trial court. Annexure-7 in Crl.M.C. No.

5337/2015 is the judgment of the Chief Judicial Magistrate

Court acquitting the petitioners in that case and the other

accused. Annexure-8 in Crl.M.C. No. 5338/2015 is the

judgment in CC No.190/2010 of the Chief Judicial Magistrate

Court, Kollam by which the petitioners in that case and the

other accused were acquitted. Annexure-9 in Crl.M.C. No.

5337/2015 and Annexure-8 in Crl.M.C. No. 5338/2015 were

challenged by the 3rd respondent in these Criminal

Miscellaneous Cases by filing appeal before the Sessions

Court, Kollam and the case was numbered as Crl.Appeal No.

50/2014 and Crl.Appeal No. 54/2014 respectively.

3. In the meanwhile, the investigating officer

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 attached to the Kollam West Police filed two separate petitions

in the above two calendar cases on 09.01.2015 for conducting

the investigation in Crime No. 472/2010 and Crime No.

534/2010. Annexure-8 in Crl.M.C. No. 5337/2015 and

Annexure-9 in Crl.M.C. No. 5338/2015 are the copy of the

CMP No. 282/2015 & CMP No. 283/2015 respectively filed

before the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Kollam on

09.01.2015. These petitioners were filed based on the

complaint filed by the 3rd respondent in these cases to the 2 nd

respondent stating that the investigation conducted in Crime

No.472/2010 and Crime No. 534/2010 are not proper. The

learned Chief Judicial Magistrate allowed the above

applications as evident by Annexure-9 in Crl.M.C. No.

5337/2015 and Annexure-10 in Crl.M.C. No. 5338/2015.

Pursuant to the above orders, the Circle Inspector of Police,

Kollam West Police filed a report in Crl.A. Nos.50/2014 and

54/2014 seeking a remand of the matter to the Chief Judicial

Magistrate Court, Kollam to enable further investigation.

Based on the above request, the above appeals were disposed

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 remanding the case to the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court,

Kollam to enable further investigation. Annexure-10 and

Annexure-11 produced in Crl.M.C. No. 5337/2015 and Crl.M.C.

No. 5338/215 are the judgments in Crl.A. Nos. 50/2014 and

54/2014 of the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Kollam. These

judgments were challenged by the petitioners before this

Court by filing revisions. Crl.R.P No. 366/2015 and Crl.R.P.

No.419/2015 are the revisions filed against the above

judgments. The Criminal Miscellaneous cases are filed

challenging the order passed by the Chief Judicial Magistrate

Court, Kollam by which further investigations are ordered and

Crl.R.P. No. 366/2015 and Crl.R.P. No. 419/2015 are filed

challenging the judgment in Crl.A. Nos. 50/2014 and 54/2014

of the Addl.Sessions Court-VI, Kollam respectively.

4. Heard Senior Counsel, Sri.S.Sreekumar, the

learned counsel for the petitioners in these cases. I also heard

the learned Public Prosecutor, who appeared for the State.

5. Admittedly, the petitioners faced trial in CC

No. 197/2010 & CC No. 190/2010 and they were acquitted by

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court as per the judgment dated

28.10.2013. The accused were acquitted in these cases mainly

for the reason that even after repeated coercive steps, CW

Nos. 1 to 3 in these cases did not turned up and hence,

Deputy Director of Prosecution dispensed the examination of

the other witness and evidence was closed. Accordingly, the

accused were acquitted. As I mentioned earlier, the judgment

was delivered in the above cases on 28.10.2013. In both

these cases, the 3rd respondent in these Crl.M.C.s. filed an

appeal before the Sessions Court, Kollam and the appeal was

pending.

6. Pending appeal, the investigating officer based

on a complaint from the 3rd respondent in the Criminal

Miscellaneous cases to the 2nd respondent filed separate

applications for further investigation in the above two crimes.

Annexure-8 in Crl.M.C. No. 5337/2015 and Annexure-9 in

Crl.M.C. No. 5338/2015 are the petitions filed by the

investigating officer for further investigation. Admittedly,

these petitions were filed after the Calendar

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 cases are disposed by the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court

acquitting the accused. Of course, there is no legal bar in filing

an application under Sec.173(8) Cr.P.C., if the office-in-charge

of the police station obtained further evidence, oral or

documentary. But, admittedly, the acquittal order passed by

the Chief Judicial Magistrate is challenged before the Sessions

Court, Kollam and the appeal was pending when these

applications were filed. Propriety demands that the Police

officer concerned should have approach the appellate court

with such a prayer for further investigation in the pending

appeal instead of filing an application before the trial court.

7. Moreover, this Court perused Annexure-8 in

Crl.MC No.5337/2015 and Annexure-9 in Crl.MC

No.5338/2015, which are the petitions filed by the Police

Inspector, Kollam West Police Station on 09.01.2015 for

further investigation. In both these cases, the reason for

further investigation is that, a complaint is filed by the defacto

complainant stating that the investigation in those cases are

not proper and therefore, a further investigation is necessary.

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 The question to be decided is whether a further investigation

can be requested in a concluded case in which the accused are

acquitted stating that the investigation conducted in the cases

is not proper. Section 173(8) of the Code of Criminal

Procedure is extracted hereunder:

"S.173(8): Nothing in this section shall be deemed to

preclude further investigation in respect of an offence after

a report under sub-section (2) has been forwarded to the

Magistrate and, where upon such investigation, the officer in

charge of the police station obtains further evidence, oral or

documentary, he shall forward to the Magistrate a further

report or reports regarding such evidence in the form

prescribed; and the provisions of sub-sections (2) to (6)

shall, as far as may be, apply in relation to such report or

reports as they apply in relation to a report forwarded under

sub-section (2)."

8. As per Section 173(8), nothing in that section

will preclude further investigation in respect of an offence after

a report under sub-section (2) of Section 173 has been

forwarded to the Magistrate and where upon such

investigation, the officer in charge of the Police Station

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 obtained further evidence, oral or documentary. In such

situation, the officer in charge shall forward to the Magistrate

a further report or reports regarding such evidence in the form

prescribed and the provisions of sub-section 2 to 6 of Section

173, as far as may be applied in relation to such report or

reports. Therefore, for further investigation, the officer in

charge of the police station should obtained further evidence,

oral or documentary. A perusal of Annexure-8 in Crl.MC

No.5337/2015 or Annexure-9 in Crl.MC No.5338/2015 would

not show that there is any further evidence, oral or

documentary is received and therefore, further investigation is

necessary. The only reason mentioned in these applications is

that the defacto complainant in these cases filed a complaint

stating that the investigation already conducted is not proper

and therefore, a further investigation is necessary in these

cases.

9. I am of the considered opinion that, in such

situation, Section 173(8) of Cr.P.C. is not applicable at all.

Here is a case where the Police investigated the case, filed a

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 final report, the court taken cognizance of the offences and

issued summons to the accused, they faced trial and

thereafter the accused were acquitted based on the final

report filed by the Police. After concluding the trial, the

defacto complainant already filed an appeal before the

Sessions Court, Kollam. Thereafter, the Station House Officer

has no jurisdiction to file an application for further

investigation before the learned Magistrate when admittedly

as per Annexures 8 and 9 in Crl.MC Nos.5337/2015 and

5338/2015, no further evidence, oral or documentary, is

received by the officer in charge for further investigation.

10. Moreover, this Court perused the order passed

by the learned Magistrate in the applications filed for further

investigation in the above cases. I am of the considered view

that, Annexures 9 and 10 produced in Crl.MC Nos.5337/2015

and 5338/2015 are not a speaking order after applying mind.

The submission of the Station House Officer before the learned

Magistrate is that a further investigation is being conducted

because the earlier investigation is not proper. The learned

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 Magistrate without considering that ground observed in the

following manner in Annexures 9 and 10 in the above Criminal

Miscellaneous Cases. Annexure-9 order in Crl.MC

No.5337/2015 is extracted hereunder:

"This is a petition filed under section 173(8) Cr.P.C.

According to the Investigating Officer, the previous

Investigating Officer not conducted investigation properly.

On perusal of the materials which shows that the

offence alleged are different and distinct. If the investigating

officer received more materials, investigation under section

173(8) Cr.P.C. can be conducted. Hence I am of the view

that petition can be allowed and the same is allowed."

11. Similar order is passed in CC No.190/2010

also as evident by Annexure-10 produced in Crl.MC

No.5338/2015. I am of the considered opinion that,

Annexures 9 and 10 orders are unsustainable for the simple

reason that, it is not a speaking order after applying mind

because the application is filed for further investigation

because the earlier investigation is not proper. No further

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 evidence, oral or documentary is received by the officer in

charge for further investigation.

12. In addition to that, the learned Magistrate

ought not have passed the above orders when admittedly an

appeal is pending against the acquittal order before the

Sessions Court, Kollam. Admittedly, when these orders are

passed by the learned Magistrate on 16.02.2015, the appeal

against acquittal is pending before the Sessions Court, Kollam.

Propriety demands that the learned Magistrate ought not have

passed such an order when the appellate court seizing of the

matter. Therefore, I am of the considered opinion that,

Annexures 9 and 10 orders in Crl.MC Nos.5337/2015 and

5338/2015 are to be quashed.

13. Now, I will consider Crl. RP No.366/2015 and

Crl. RP No. 419/2015. These revisions are filed by the

accused in CC 197/2010 and 190/2010 on the file of the Chief

Judicial Magistrate Court, Kollam against the judgment in Crl.

Appeal Nos. 50/2014 and 54/2014 on the file of the Additional

Sessions Court-VI, Kollam. These Crl. Appeals were disposed

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 of by the Additional Sessions Judge by a non-speaking order.

The learned Additional Sessions Judge observed that the Circle

Inspector of Kollam West Police Station filed a report for

further investigation of the case based on new materials and

requested for a remand and the Additional Sessions Judge

consented to remand the case. Hence, the Crl. Appeals are

remanded to the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court. I am of the

considered opinion that, this is not the manner in which a Crl.

Appeal filed against a judgment of acquittal is to be disposed

of.

14. Section 387 of the Code of Criminal Procedure

says that the Rules contained in Chapter XXVII as to the

judgment of a criminal court of original jurisdiction shall apply

so far as may be applicable to judgments in appeal of a

Sessions Court of Chief Judicial Magistrate. Section 353 says

about the judgment and Section 354 says about the language

and contents of judgment. A Criminal Appeal cannot be disposed

of by the Additional Sessions Judge the manner in which the

impugned orders were passed in these revisions. I am of the

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 considered opinion that the impugned judgments are to be set

aside and the appellate court has to reconsider the appeals, in

accordance with law. If the Investigating Officer obtained any

further evidence, oral or documentary, after the investigation

and after the conclusion of the trial, they can bring to the

notice of the appellate court, in accordance with law.

Therefore, these cases are allowed in the following

manner:

1. Crl.MC No.5337/2015 is allowed and

Annexure-9 order dated 16.02.2015 passed by the

Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Kollam in CMP

No.282/2015 in CC 197/2010 is set aside.

2. Crl.MC No.5338/2015 is allowed and

Annexure-A10 order dated 16.02.2015 in CMP

283/2015 in CC No.190/2010 of the Chief Judicial

Magistrate Court, is set aside.

3. Crl. RP No.366/2015 is allowed and the

judgment in Crl. Appeal No.50/2014 dated

06.03.2015 of the Additional Sessions Judge-VI,

& CRLRP 336 & 419 of 2015

2024:KER:79861 Kollam is set aside and Crl. Appeal No.50/2014 is

restored. The appellate court will consider the

Appeal on merit and pass appropriate orders in it.

4. Crl. RP No.419/2015 is allowed and the

judgment dated 06.03.2015 in Crl. Appeal

No.54/2015 of the Additional Sessions Judge-VI,

Kollam is set aside and Crl. Appeal No.54/2015 is

restored. The appellate court will consider the

Appeal on merit and pass appropriate orders in it.
