In my opinion for dimissal of complaint & accused acqitted there is no provision for revision application/appeal before session court.You can file criminal appeal in the high court.I think as you stated facts for dimissing your complaint you will succeed in appeal & high court will remand your complaint for hearng on merit in trial court.riven

In your case the accused was acquitted by the learned magistrate u/s. 256, Cr.P.C. My sugessetion is File appeal u/s.378(4), Cr.P.C. against acquittal of the accused before the Chief judicial Magistrate of the district or before the Sessions Court Refer the citation 1997 (2) Crimes 591 (H&P). Magistrate has no power to restore his own order of acquittalriven
