Rule of Locus in Criminal Revision under Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973
In a recent case which arose out of allegations under S.420 of IPC, it was held that revisional power under Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 is a discretionary power, the exercise of which cannot be claimed as of right ; the role of the revisionist is essentially that of a person who invites attention of the Court that an occasion to exercise the revisional power has arisen. Strict rule of locus does not apply to a revision proceeding.
