The matter was brought in front of this court by way of criminal appeal No. 1426 of 2017. During the court hearing, it appears that there was progress in the investigation and Charger-sheet was filed against Yagnesh Vyas and Sanjay Shah who then arrested.<\/li><li>In the criminal appeal, No 1426 of 2017 the court observed that if the PRV has any objection against dropping one another accused he can carry out proceedings in an appropriate court against one Shri M.N Bhaumik for not prosecuting him.<\/li><li>The PRV filed an application before the Chief Judicial magistrate, under Sections 173(8) and 156(3) of the CrPC for further investigation against Shri Bhaumki. However, the magistrate dismissed the application claiming he has no jurisdiction to order further investigation u\/s 173(8) CrPC.<\/li><li>Aggrieved and dissatisfied the PRV filed a special criminal application No. 8704 of 2018 before Gujrat HC. The appellant here one of the accused who has already been charge-sheeted, submitted to be joined as party respondent No.4 in the said special criminal application. The HC has dismissed the said application.

The Bench, in particular, referred to following observations made in <strong>Sri Bhagwan Sawardha Sreepada Venkata Vishwandadha Maharaj Vs State of Andhra Pradesh &amp; Ors<\/strong> \u201cThere is nothing in Section 173 (8) to suggest that the Court is obliged to hear the accused before any such direction is made.
