Judgment text as reported

SAMIULLAH VS SPECIAL JUDGE ANTI RAPE/SESSIONS JUDGE, SARIAB DIVISION S. 540---Power to summon material witness or examine person present---Re-calling for cross-examination---Scope---Engagement of new advocate is no ground for recalling any of the witnesses for cross-examination---Neither the defence nor the prosecution can be allowed to fill the lacuna by re-summoning the witnesses under S. 540, Cr.P.C.---If this practice is allowed, none of the trials would ever come to an end and such practice would amount to opening floodgates.
