ORAL JUDGMENT
Date : 04-09-2019
Heard the parties.
2. By the impugned order dated 11.08.2015, the learned
Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class, Gaya took cognizance in connection
with Mahila P.S. Case No. 02 of 2015 and ordered issuance of
summons against the accused person to face trial for offences
under Sections 498A and Section494 of the Indian Penal Code.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioners has drawn
attention of the Court towards the charge sheet submitted in the
aforesaid police case and submits that, in fact, the petitioners were
not sent up for trial, rather only husband of the informant, namely,
Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.55979 of 2015 dt.04-09-2019
2/2
Rajeev Ranjan @ Rajeev Kumar was sent up to face trial for
offences under Sections 498A and Section494 of the Indian Penal Code.
4. However, the learned court below in a mechanical
manner recorded that charge sheet has been submitted against the
petitioners also.
5. Since the impugned order apparently suffers from
non-application of judicial mind, the same is not sustainable in law
for the simple reason that it would lead to miscarriage of justice.
Hence, it stands set aside and the matter is remitted back to the
learned court below to pass fresh order after going through the
material collected during investigation of the case, according to
law, within fifteen days from the date of receipt of a copy of this
order.
6. Accordingly, this application stands allowed.
