Judgment text as reported

EJAZ AHMAD VS State S. 540---Power to summon material witness or examine person present---Scope---Section 540, Cr.P.C. deals with three kinds of cases and invests the Court with a power to deal with them---First case is of a person not examined by any Court and who is not present in Court---Such a person may be summoned by the Court to give evidence, in which case he will be summoned and examined by the Court---Second case is of a person who is present in Court though he is not summoned as a witness---In the present case also the Court can examine such a person, and the third case is of a person who has already been examined in Court and the Court is invested with the power to recall him and re-examine him---Such power, however, can be exercised by the Court if the evidence of such a person appears to the Court essential to the just decision of the case.
