ORDER
19.01.2026 Order No. (Through hybrid Mode)
08.
1. Heard, Mr. D. P. Dash, learned counsel for the petitioner in Criminal Revision No. 650 of 2004 and Mr. S. Panda, learned counsel appearing on behalf of Mr. D. Panda, learned counsel for the petitioner in Criminal Revision No. 747 of 2004. Mr. D. P. Dash, learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted the xerox copy of Exhibit 26 which is taken on record. The same shall be scanned by the Registry. His written note of submission is already there on record. Mr. S. Panda, learned counsel submits that he shall file his written note of submission by 27.01.2026.
2. Heard Mr. Sarthak Nayak, learned Special Public Prosecutor-
cum- Retainer Counsel (CBI). He submits that he has submitted his appearance memo in both the cases. He also submits that he shall file his written note of submission by 27.01.2026.
3. Although paper books have been prepared in both the cases, it appears that copies of exhibits are neither available in the scanned copy of the trial Court record form part of the paper book. The trial Court record has already been returned after retaining a scanned copy. Be as it may, if the revisions can be disposed of without perusing the copies of other exhibits, copies of the exhibits need not be called for from the learned trial Court.
4. Perused the explanations submitted by the Deputy Registrar (Judicial), Superintendent and the concerned Dealing Assistant. Although, I do not find the explanation of the dealing assistant to be satisfactory, but no action need be taken against him, since he has apologized for his negligence.
5. Hearing is concluded.
6. Judgment is reserved.
