Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881–Secs. 138 & 145–Examination of complainant–Affidavit and documents filed by the complainant along with complaint for taking cognizance for the offence are good enough to be read in evidence at both stages i.e. pre-summoning stage and post summoning stage–He is not required to be examined for twice–In other words, there is no necessity to recall and re-examine the complainant after summoning of accused, unless the Magistrate passes a specific order as to why the complainant is to be recalled.
