In that case,<\/p>\n<p>the  Investigating   Officer  &#8211;   P.W.39   has   been   examined.\n<\/p>\n<p>After such examination, the learned Public Prosecutor   filed<\/p>\n<p>an application to recall P.W.39 and the said application stands<\/p>\n<p>allowed   under   Annexure-III   order.       The   petitioners   had   also<\/p>\n<p>filed   Annxure-II   petition     &#8211;     Crl.M.P.No.5043\/06,   to   recall   as<\/p>\n<p>many   as   17   witnesses   for   the   purpose   of   further   cross-\n<\/p>\n<p>examination.     The   short   grievance   of   the   petitioners     is   that<\/p>\n<p>though   Annexure-III   order   has   been   passed,   no   orders   have<\/p>\n<p>been passed on their application.\n<\/p>\n<p>      2.  I have no hesitation to agree with the learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>for   the   petitioners   that   Annexure-II   petition   deserves   to   be<\/p>\n<p>disposed of on merits.     The learned Sessions Judge shall pass<\/p>\n<p>appropriate orders on Annexure-II application at the earliest &#8211;\n<\/p>\n<p>within  a period  of 10  days  from  the   date  on  which   a  copy of<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\"> CRL.M.C.NO. 3776 OF  2006  -: 2 :-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>this order is placed before the learned Sessions Judge.\n<\/p>\n<p>         3.     The   learned   counsel   for   the   petitioners   prays   that<\/p>\n<p>examination of P.W.39, under Annexure-III, may be permitted to<\/p>\n<p>take   place   only   after   the   prayer   to   recall   the   prosecution<\/p>\n<p>witnesses is considered and decided.     According to the learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel   for   the   petitioners,   if   the   witnesses   were   recalled<\/p>\n<p>subsequent   to   the   further   examination   of   P.W.39,   P.W.39   may<\/p>\n<p>have   to   be   further   recalled   again,   if   necessary,   after   cross-\n<\/p>\n<p>examination of the witnesses already examined on the side of the<\/p>\n<p>prosecution.     The   learned   Sessions   Judge   must   take   this   into<\/p>\n<p>consideration and decide the timing for examination of P.W.39.\n<\/p>\n<p>         4.   With the above observations, this Crl.M.C. is allowed in<\/p>\n<p>part.\n<\/p>\n<p>         5.
