P.C. have been recorded, which shows that the learned Magistrate has not perused the record including the statement of P.W. 1 and P.W. 2 and passed impugned order dated 1.12.2006 by which the complaint has been dismissed, which is illegal the revisional court has also not considered the error committed by the learned C.J.M.

P.C. have not been recorded whereas the judgment of the revisional court shows that the statements of P.W. 1 Arbind Kumar and P.W. 2 Dinesh Chandra have been recorded under Section 202, Cr. P.C., it shows that the learned Magistrate concerned has passed the order dated 1.12.2006 without perusing the record. The impugned order dated 1.12.2006 is illegal and is set aside. The revisional court has also not considered this error committed by the learned C.J.M., in dismissing the revision vide order dated 16.4.2007, which is illegal and is hereby set aside.
