                                            (A.P. Sen, L.M. Sharma JJ)

                                                      18.01.1988

                                                        ORDER

1. Special leave granted. Arguments heard.

2. After hearing learned counsel for the parties, we do feel that the High Court Should have in the
fitness of things, in view of the fact that the allegations in the complaints for alleged offences under
Sections 500 and 501, both read with Section 34 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 filed at different
places, are almost the same, directed the trial of the complaints by the same court. We accordingly
set aside the order of the High Court dismissing the application under Section 407 of the Code of
Criminal Procedure, 1973 and remit the same for a decision afresh. In allowing the application
under Section 407 of the Code, the High Court should direct the disposal of the complaints at one
place after notice to the parties.

3. The appeal is disposed of accordingly.
