prima facie case proceed against - the accused -petitioners, namely, Nemtulla and Rani Praveen
and accordingly issued summons against them under Section 319 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure for facing the trial along with other accused persons.
(2.) IT is submitted by the learned Counsel for the petitioners that the impugned order is bad in law, as the learned Additional Sessions Judge has not given a finding as to what offence has been
committed by these two petitioners. It is further submitted that it is settled principle of law as
reported in the various judgment of Supreme Court including one reported in A.I.R. 2000 (1) S.C
1127 in the case of Michael Michado V/s. CBI that before summon against an accused under Section 319 Cr. P.C, the court must be satisfied that some offence has been committed by the
accused persons.

Isteyaque, P.W.6, Md. Abulash and P.W.9, Md. Aftab Allam have stated about the part played by
these two petitioners and the offences committed by them. The learned Additional Sessions Judge
also after considering the evidences has passed the impugned order and as such the revision
application is only fit to be dismissed.
(3.) AFTER hearing both the parties and going through the record, I find that the prosecution case was started on the basis of a Fardbeyan given by Saleha Khatoon wherein she alleged that on
