4. ' I have gone through the order sheet of the case and find out that the statement of accused under section 342 has not been recorded immediately after the prosecution evidence is completed. This may be termed as great violation of the mandatory provision of section 342, Cr.P.C. Resultantly, the whole trial can be vitiated. Therefore, in my view it is necessary to record the statement of the respondent accused under section 342, Cr.P.C. Before proceeding further.

5. (Sd)/- Ms. Gulzar Butt (Member Legal)
