Given the complainant withdrew the report, received compensation, will not give evidence, and the DPP offered only a vague intention to "review" the investigation without good grounds for DNAA, the court properly exercised its discretion under s254(3) CPC to grant a discharge amounting to an acquittal; this does not usurp prosecutorial power under Article 145.
