JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) THIS revision petition has been filed against the order
dated 7.6.2006 passed by learned Addl. Sessions Judge(Fast
Track) No.3, Jodhpur whereby the cognizance has been taken
against respondent no.2 has been set aside by the revisional
court for the offences under Sections 420, 427, 177 and 199 IPC.
(2.) THE short facts of the case are that the petitioner- complainant lodged a report stating therein that respondent
no.2 is the employee of the bank. He moved an application for
staff loan on the false information that he has not taken any
kind of loan from any bank. On this false information, loan was
sanctioned to the respondent. Thereafter, the petitioner
received a communication from the LIC Housing Finance Limited
that the respondent is a loanee for the amount of Rs.
,00,000.00 and Rs. 1,13,297.00 is overdue till 1.11.2005. Thus respondent no.2 has given a false information causing wrongful
gain to him and the explanation has also been sought from the
respondent no.2 and he had not denied the fact that he was
loanee with the LIC Housing Finance Limited. On this, FIR was
investigated and the Final Report was submitted by the police
on the ground that only offences under Sections 177 and 199 IPC
are made out which are non-cognizable. On protest, the court
below has taken cognizance against the respondent for the
offences under Sections 420, 427, 177 and 199 IPC. A revision
was preferred by the respondent which was accepted. Hence
this revision petition.
3. The contention of the present petitioner is that the revisional court has exceeded its jurisdiction as the revisional
court has minutely appreciated the evidence and the revisional
court was guided by the fact that the amount of such loan has
already been repaid, hence no offence is made out.
(3.) PER contra, the contention of respondent no. 2 is that he had not furnished any wrong information. The present
petitioner complainant has undertaken that he had not taken
any loan from any bank and ,admittedly, he was not a loanee
from any bank. The impugned loan which has been taken into
consideration was from a financial institution and after this
incident, the application form for the staff loan has been
amended and the words "financial institution" has also been
added and he has not committed any offence and further more,
his contention is that it is not a case of cheating. It is only a
case of not disclosing the facts. No false information has been
given by him. Further more, his contention is that all the loan
amounts of housing loan and of staff loan have already been re-
paid and there is no infirmity in the order of the revisional
court.;
