(PER: THE HON'BLE MS. JUSTICE J.M.KHAZI) Petitioner who is complainant before the trial court has filed this petition under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. challenging the order dated 13.12.2017 passed by the trial court dismissing the complainant as against accused Nos.8 to 11, by which the trial court has ordered for issuance of process against accused Nos.1 to 7, but refused to proceed against accused Nos.8 to 11 who are revenue officials.

2. For the sake of convenience, the parties are referred to by their ranks before the trial court.

NC: 2024:KHC-D:16229

3. In support of the petition, complainant has contended that the refusal by the trial court to take cognizance against the accused Nos.8 to 11 is opposed to law, facts and probabilities of the case. The trial court has failed to appreciate that accused Nos.8 to 11 have failed to act in accordance with law. They have altered the boundaries of the property of the complainant in a manner advantageous to accused Nos.1 to 7, without issuing notice to the complainant. There are specific allegations in para 8 of the complaint regarding illegal acts of accused Nos.8 to 11 which is sufficient to take cognizance against them. Not only accused Nos.8 to 11 guilty of not providing opportunity to the complainant by issuing notice, but also in altering boundaries of the property of the complainant contrary to the documents. Complainant is required to be provided with an opportunity to establish the allegations made against accused Nos.8 to 11 and hence, the petition.

The petitioner - accused is before this Court calling in question proceedings in Spl.C.No.1338/2024 registered for offences punishable under Sections 417, 420 and 313 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 (the 'IPC' for short).

3. Facts adumbrated are as follows:

The second respondent is the complainant, registers a complaint on 28.03.2024 for the afore quoted offences. The crux of the complaint is that the complainant and the petitioner get acquainted to each other in the year 2021, while they were working together. The narration in the complaint that the friendship blossomed into relationship and the relationship was physical as well. Further allegation in the complaint is that the petitioner had physical relationship with the complainant on the pretext of marriage or on the promise of marriage. The promise having been broken is what leads the complainant to register a complaint with the jurisdictional police for the aforesaid offences. The police after investigation filed a charge sheet and the matter is presently pending as a special case in 1338/2024 for the afore quoted offences.

Petitioners are co-accused in Special Case No.741 of 2024 pending on the file of VIII Additional District and Sessions Judge, Bengaluru Rural, Bengaluru.

2. Heard Sri Mayur D Bhanu, learned counsel for petitioner and Smt Rashmi Patil, learned High Court Government Pleader for respondent.

3. This Court, qua two of the accused i.e., accused Nos.23 and 69 in W.P.No.29510 of 2024 disposed on 4-11- 2024 has held as follows:

NC: 2024:KHC:45326 Against the petitioners, non-bailable warrant is issued as is issued against several of the accused who were not present. Whether a non-bailable warrant could be issued or not for securing the presence of the accused, need not detain this Court for long or delve deep into the matter. The Apex Court in the case of TARSEM LAL V. ENFORCEMENT DIRECTORATE reported in (2024) 7 SCC 61, considers the very issue and holds as follows:

SEBI and Joint Registrar of Cooperative Societies have not filed their reports.

2. Investigating Officer is directed to communicate this order to the officer concerned of SEBI as well as Mr. P. K. Dutta, learned Advocate who ordinarily represents SEBI as well as the Joint Registrar of Cooperative Societies for due compliance.

3. Let the matters appear on 25.11.2024.

4. Interim order passed earlier shall continue for a period of four weeks from date or until further orders, whichever is earlier. (Ajay Kumar Gupta, J.) (Joymalya Bagchi, J.)

4. In brief, the present appeal arises out of the dismissal of the appellant's suit under Section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 for restitution of conjugal rights.

5. Learned counsel for the appellant submits that in the event the divorce suit subsequently initiated by the wife is decided, the same may prejudice the outcome of the present appeal.

6. That apart, the divorce suit was initiated by the wife subsequent to the initiation of the husband's suit for restitution of conjugal rights.

7. Accordingly, apart from the husband otherwise being entitled to an order of stay in lieu of the circumstances as indicated above, the principle of Section 10 of the Code of Civil Procedure may also be deemed to be applicable in the present case.

Petitioner is in custody for 11 months. He submits there was a romantic relationship between the parties. Victim has already been examined. Accordingly, he prays for bail.

2. Learned Advocate for the State opposes the bail prayer.

3. Inspite of notice nobody appears for the victim.

4. We have considered the deposition of the victim. Though she is a minor, she admitted there was friendly relationship between the parties. Her deposition is complete. There is little possibility of trial concluding in the near future.

It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner he is in custody for about 170 days. It is further submitted no specific overt act is attributed to the petitioner. Co-accused viz. Jinarul Sk. @ Bucha and Sujauddin Sk. @ Md. Sujauddin have been enlarged on bail. Accordingly, he prays for bail on parity.

2. Learned Advocate for the State opposes the prayer for bail.

3. We have considered the materials on record. Statements of witnesses show petitioner was present at the spot. However, allegations against the petitioner are general and omnibus and no specific overt act has been attributed to him. He stands on the same footing with co- accused viz. Jinarul Sk. @ Bucha and Sujauddin Sk. @ Md. Sujauddin who have been enlarged on bail. Under such circumstances and in view of the period of detention suffered by the petitioner, we are of the opinion further detention of the accused/petitioner is not necessary.

Heard learned lawyers for both parties.

2. Petitioner submits there was a romantic relationship between two young persons. He is in custody for about more than four and half months. He prays for bail.

3. Learned counsel appearing for the State opposes the bail prayer.

4. Inspite of notice, nobody appears for the victim.

5. We have considered the materials on record. Statement of victim supports the version of the petitioner that there was a romantic relationship between two young persons. Petitioner is in custody for a considerable period of time. There is no chance of trial concluding in the near future, we are inclined to grant bail to the petitioner.

It is submitted on behalf of the petitioner he has been falsely implicated in the instant case. Investigation is complete. Accordingly, he prays for anticipatory bail.

2. Learned Advocate for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail and submits victim was a minor.

3. Learned Advocate for the de-facto complainant also opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail.

4. We have considered the materials on record. Victim was a minor and the petitioner subjected her to sexual assault. However, investigation is complete. Under such circumstances, we are of the opinion custodial interrogation of the accused/petitioner is not necessary and he may be granted anticipatory bail however, subject to strict conditions.

Heard learned Advocates for both the parties.

2. We have considered the materials on record. The dispute arose out of a commercial transaction. Mere failure to comply with the terms of a commercial arrangement per se would not attract the ingredients of the alleged offence. Under such circumstances, we are of the opinion though custodial interrogation of the accused/petitioner is not necessary and he may be granted anticipatory bail, he requires to cooperate with the investigation.
