(i) Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989, -- Locus Standi -- Proposed Accused Challenging Investigation Order -- A proposed accused at the pre-cognisance stage has no right of audience and no locus standi to challenge an order of the Special Court directing registration of a First Information Report or investigation. An order directing investigation decides nothing finally against the prospective accused, and he cannot therefore be treated as an aggrieved party entitled to maintain an appeal under Section 14-A(1) of the Act.
