ORDER Wallace, J. 1. The refusal of the Sub-Divisional Magistrate to entertain the appeal unless a vakalat was filed, although a memo. of appearance was put in was clearly wrong [See In re Munirama Reddi 1 Ind. Cas. 546 : 5 M.L.T. 290 : 9 Cr. L.J. 305] and contrary to Rule 141 of Criminal Rules of Practice. In any case, the appeal had been already entertained by a proper Court and was then transferred to him for disposal. 2. The order of the Sub-Divisional Magistrate is set aside. He is directed to admit and hear the appeal and dispose of it according to law.
