This query is : Resolved
The husband and parents were convicted u/s 498 IPC & 3,4 of DP Act by Magistrate Court. Later the conviction was setaside and all were acquitted by Addl Sessions Court. Defacto Complainant wife, filed Crl RC in High Court making the State and husband with parents as opposite parties. My query is whether High Court has powers to reverse acquittal and restore the Magistrate Court's order. Please enlighten me. If possible any citations.
