JUDGMENT : S. Pujahari, J. - Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the opposite party. 2. This is an application filed under Section 407 of the Cr. P.C. to transfer the Criminal Misc Case No. 119 of 2016 now pending in the Court of learned S.D.J.M., Nayagarh to the Court of learned S.D.J.M., Khurda which was filed under Section 12 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 at the instance of the opposite party-wife inasmuch as another case bearing C.P No. 615 of 2014 is now pending before the learned Judge, Family Court, Khurda, which was filed by the petitioner at Bhubaneswar, being transferred there at the instance of the opposite party-wife. 3. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that since C. P. No. 615 of 2014 is pending before the learned Judge, Family Court, Khurda at the instance of the opposite party-wife, for convenience of both the parties, Criminal Misc. Case No. 119 of 2016 pending in the Court of learned S.D.J.M., Nayagarh may be transferred to Khurda. 4. Learned counsel for the opposite party objects the aforesaid on the ground that since the statute provides the right to to the aggrieved person to make a complaint in a Court competent within the territorial jurisdiction of which the wife is residing and the opposite party-wife has a physically challenged baby, the petitioner has made out no case for transfer. In such premises, he submits the aforesaid case should not be transferred. 5. Considering the facts and submissions made, especially statue provides that wife has a right to file petition under Section 12 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 in a Court having competency to try the same within whose territorial jurisdiction she resides and she has a handicapped son, I am not inclined to transferred the aforesaid case pending before the learned S.D.J.M., Nayagarh and accordingly, this criminal revision filed is devoid of merit and as such stands dismissed. 6. Interim order dated 03.02.2016 passed in Misc. Case No. 4 of 2016 arising out of TRPCRL No. 5 of 2016 stands vacated. 7. This order be communicated to the Trial Court forthwith.
