(2.) HEARD .

(3.) THE submission of learned counsel for petitioners is that the scene of offence set up by the prosecution and spoken by PWs.1 and 2 are quite different locations and therefore, for proper appreciation of evidence placed by the prosecution and to note the vital discrepancies in the evidence of prosecution witnesses, it is imperative in the interest of justice for the trial Court to make a local inspection but the trial Court erroneously dismissed the application filed by the petitioners.
