Crl.R.C.No.142 of 2020
not filed.
2.The learned Counsel for the petitioner would submit that the
petitioner in this case, E.Mathivanan, has since passed away, therefore, in
view of the same, the Full Bench Judgment of this Court, the Lower
Appellate Court Judgment in C.A.No.12 of 2018 has to be ignored as “void
ab initio” and this Revision has to be converted as the appeal against the
acquittal.
3.Since before conversion of this revision into appeal against the
acquittal, the petitioner is died, nothing survives for further adjudication in
this issue. Accordingly, the Criminal Revision Case is ordered to be closed.
