3. The court dealing with a complaint case has
ample powers to compel appearance of an accused in case of
failure to appear on receipt of summons. The extraordinary
jurisdiction of this Court under SectionArticle 226 of the Constitution of
India cannot be invoked for the purposes of execution of an order
passed by a Court of Magistrate.
4. In view of equally efficacious statutory remedy
being available to the petitioner, I am not inclined to entertain this
application.
5. The application is dismissed, accordingly.
