JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) This revision is against the
order of the Addl. Sessions Judge, FTC No.
IV, Dhanbad, revising the order of the Judicial
Magistrate, 1st Class, in C. P. Case No.
1000/04, dismissing the complaint of the
complainant, who is the Opp. Party No. 2 in
this revision.
(2.) A complaint was filed by the complainant
(Opp. Party No. 2) against the petitioner,
Mahendra Sahu, with an allegation that at
about 1.30 P. M. on 23-1-04, the petitioner,
after requesting the complainant to make a
cup of tea, caught her and pushed her onto
the bed and forcefully raped her. According
to the complainant - Opp. Party No. 2 she
narrated the incident and thereafter filed a
complaint at the police station. She has further alleged that since the police did not
take any action, she had to come by way of
a private complaint to seek justice. The complaint was taken on file, complainant was
examined and it was fixed for enquiry under
Section 202 Cr. P. C. During the course of
enquiry, two witnesses were examined on
behalf of the complainant - Opp. Party No.
2 and thereafter, the learned Magistrate went
on to pass an order dismissing the complaint.
The complainant- Opp. Party No. 2,
aggrieved by the said order of dismissal
under Section 203 Cr. P. C., filed a revision
before the Sessions Judge and the learned
Sessions Judge reversed the order of dismissal
and restored the complaint on file
and directed the Magistrate to proceed with
the case according to law. The present revision by the accused in the complaint is
against the said order of the learned Sessions Judge.
(3.) Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner strenuously contends that the
learned Sessions Judge erred in reversing
the order of the Judicial Magistrate dismissing
the complaint, since, according to the
counsel, the learned Magistrate found during enquiry
that no offence had been made
out and the evidence of the witnesses produced by
the complainant was found to be unbelievable.;
