JUDGEMENT

Prashant Kumar, J. - (1.) This revision is directed against the order dated 21st of June 2006 passed by sessions judge , West Singhbhum at Chaibasa in Criminal Revision No. 66 of 2005, whereby he allowed the Revision filed by opposite party No. 2 and set aside the order dated 13.09.2005 passed by Judicial Magistrate 1st Class, Chaibasa in Misc Case No. 04 of 2004.
(2.) It is submitted by Sri Kaushik Sarkhel, learned Counsel for Petitioner, that Petitioner is the second wife of opposite party No. 2. He further submits that under the ' Ho' community, as per custom, second marriage is permissible, hence opposite party No. 2 is entitled for maintenance. He further submits that it is stated by Petitioner before Magistrate that she married with opposite party No. 2 in 'Jisuku' form of marriage, which is prevalent in 'Ho' community. However he admits that there is no evidence to prove the customs prevalent in 'Ho' community. He also admits that no other witnesses examined by the Petitioner to prove that 'Jisuku' form of marriage is prevalent in 'Ho' community.
(3.) From perusal of impugned order, I find that learned Sessions Judge considered evidence available on record and concluded that in the instant case, no evidence was available on re cord to show that any marriage was solemnized in between O.P. No. 1(Petitioner of this case) and Petitioner(O.P. No. 2 of this case). Learned Counsel for the Petitioner did not show any material which suggest that finding of learned Sessions Judge is incorrect.;
