Section 482 Cr.P.C. for setting aside the order dated 08.11.2011,
passed by learned Judicial Magistrate 1

summoning the petitioners as accused in a complaint, and the order
dated 12.5.2012 (Annexure P-3), passed by learned Additional
Sessions Judge, Nuh, whereby the revision petition filed challenging
the order (Annerxure P-2) was dismissed.
(2.) The brief facts of the case are that respondent, Smt.
Bimla, filed a complaint before the learned Judicial Magistrate 1
st
Class, Nuh, on the allegations that she was resident of Tauru and
owned a plot measuring 800 square yards situated within the abadi
deh, which was allotted to her as a landless Harijan. It was further
alleged that on 11.07.2010, while the respondent was working in her
plot, all the petitioners in collusion with each other reached there and
quarreled with her, threw away the construction material out of the
plot and threatened her to vacate the plot immediately, otherwise to
face the dire consequences. It was further alleged that when she
resisted the act and conduct of the petitioners-accused, they
misbehaved, gave beatings to her and raised lalkara and uttered
"Chamari Dhedni Tujhe es plot main naheen rehene denga tatha
kabza ham karenge". One Dinu reached at the spot and rescued her
from the clutches of the petitioners. While leaving, the petitioners
threatened the respondent-complainant to cause her death as and
when they get an opportunity. The respondent-complainant further
alleged that the petitioners caught her breast deliberately. The
matter was reported to the police but no action was taken.
(3.) The complaint was filed before the learned Area
Magistrate and request was made to send the same in terms of
Section 156(3) Cr.P.C. for registration of the case. However, the
learned Area Magistrate proposed to treat the same as a complaint
and directed the respondent-complainant to lead preliminary
evidence. The preliminary evidence was led, thereafter, vide
