JUDGEMENT
AMAR SARAN,J -
(1.) HEARD learned counsel for the revisionist and learned Additional
Government Advocate.
(2.) BY means of this criminal revision the revisionist has challenged an order
dated 11.9.2009 passed by the
Special/Additional Sessions Judge,
Siddharthnagar summoning the revisionist
in a case under section 304/34 IPC in
exercise of powers under section 319
Cr.P.C.
It is argued by the learned counsel for the revisionist that as per the FIR there
was no sufficient evidence for
summoning the revisionist because as per
the FIR the informant was not an
eyewitness as he has stated that when he
reached the home of the revisionist and
the co-accused Nafis, when he received
information on mobile that his daughter
had died, but he falsely stated in Court in
his examination-in-chief that when he
reached the place, then he saw quarrel
taking place and Rahim, the revisionist
was kicking the deceased, Shakir Jahan,
whilst Reshma had given fist blow and
initially summoned accused Nafis
pressing her neck. By the time, he
reached, the deceased had died and the
revisionist and co-accused had left the
dead body and had disappeared from
there.
(3.) LEARNED counsel has placed reliance upon the decisions of Hon'ble
Apex Court in Lal Suraj alias Suraj
Singh and another Vs. State of
Jharkhand, (2009) 1 SCC (Cri) 844, Anil
Singh and another Vs. State of Bihar
and others, (2008) 1 SCC (Cri) 708 and
Kailash Vs. State of Rajasthan and
another, (2009) 1 SCC (Cri) 1006 for the
proposition that the powers under section
319 Cr.P.C. should be exercised sparingly and the probability of conviction needs to
be assessed.;
