Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the Rajasthan High Court erred in dismissing the revision application under Section 397 read with Section 401 of the Cr.P.C. without providing reasons, as the dismissal of the State's application for leave to appeal does not render the informant's revision application infructuous. The Court emphasized that the High Court is obligated to review the trial court's acquittal if it failed to properly evaluate the evidence. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order and directed it to entertain the revision application.
