(3.) LEARNED counsel for the petitioner has submitted that when the cognizance had already been taken previously, the supplementary charge -sheet could not have been filed without the permission of the court and the court was not competent to take cognizance on the supplementary charge -sheet. It has also been submitted that since the petitioner has been granted bail in the grave offences then the petitioner should be enlarged on bail in the added Section also. It has also been submitted that the permission of the court has not been sought under Section 178 CrPC, therefore, the submission of supplementary charge -sheet is against the provisions of law.
