Application dismissed: no existing subordinate court proceedings existed to invoke the High Court's supervisory or revisionary jurisdiction under s.35 CJA, and the inherent jurisdiction could not be used to circumvent the statutory scheme that vests initiation of inquest inquiries in the Public Prosecutor under s.339 CPC; applicant's proper remedy is by appropriate writ (eg mandamus) or to seek prosecutorial action.
