Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Trial Court erred in denying the appellant's request for cross-examination of P.Ws.1 and 2, who had already been examined on behalf of the plaintiffs. The Court found that the High Court failed to exercise its jurisdiction by not intervening in the Trial Court's decision. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, the previous orders were set aside, and the appellant's request for cross-examination was granted, with directions to expedite the hearing of the suit.
