He visited the house of the petitioner on 31st December, 1985 at 7.15a.m Out side the house, he met the petitioner's son Ashok, who informed him that his father is sleeping, so he should come afterwards. Thereafter, he again came at 5 p.m. The petitioner met him and told him that the address is of Taparia Building and if the petitioner was not found there, was no necessity to come to his house and he asked him to return the notice without service. He refused to accept the notice. The learned Magistrate took cognizance on the complaint on 7 -3 -1985 and process was issued to the petitioner. The petitioner submitted an application on 29 -8 -1986 for his discharge, as no case is made out and the allegations are false. An objection was also taken that as the complainant has not been examined under Section 200 so the entire proceedings are vitiated. The learned Magistrate heard the application and passed a detailed order whereby he rejected the petitioner's application.
