BALJEET SINGH Vs. STATE OF RAJASTHAN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS Criminal Misc. Petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been filed by the petitioners against the order dated 14.11.2014 passed by the Additional Sessions Judge, Anoopgarh, District Sri Ganganagar (hereinafter referred to as 'the revisional court'), whereby the revisional court has dismissed the revision petition filed by the petitioners for want of jurisdiction and affirmed the order dated 23.08.2014 passed by the Judicial Magistrate, First Class, Anoopgarh, District Sri Ganganagar (hereinafter referred to as 'the trial court'), whereby the trial court has taken cognizance against the petitioners for the offence punishable under Sections 376(2)(G) IPC and Section 3(2)(5) of SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989.

(2.) LEARNED counsel for the petitioners has submitted that the trial court has grossly erred in taking cognizance against the petitioners for the aforesaid offences as no material was available against the petitioner for taking cognizance. It is argued by learned counsel for the petitioners that the petitioners have falsely been implicated in this case. It is also argued by learned counsel for the petitioners that the trial court has wrongly summoned the petitioners through arrest warrants and alternately it is prayed that the arrest warrants issued by the trial court may be converted into bailable warrants.

(3.) LEARNED Public Prosecutor has also argued that the cognizance has been taken against the petitioners on 23.08.2014 but they did not appear before the trial court and the arrest warrants were issued to them, which have not been executed and the petitioners are absconding, therefore, the prayer of the petitioners for converting the arrest warrant into bailable warrants is not liable to be entertained.
