Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Trial Court erred in refusing the appellant's prayer 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 this matter. Consequently, the civil appeal was allowed, the impugned orders were set aside, and the cross-examination was granted, with directions to expedite the hearing of the suit.
