1 I N THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR Criminal Application No. 649 OF 2010 Ram s/o Mahadevrao Halade v. The State of Mah. & anr. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram appearances, Court's orders or directions Court's or Judge's and Registrar's orders orders ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mr. I.S. Charlewar Advocate for the Applicant. ..... CORAM: A.B.CHAUDHARI, J. DATED : 19 th APRIL, _2010. There is a challenge to the first information report No. 27 of 2010 dated 11.3.200 in respect of offences punishable under Sections 294 and 354 of Indian Penal Code. Learned counsel for the applicant vehemently argued that initially F.I.R. was lodged by the complainant for the offences punishable under Sections 323, 504 and 506 of Indian Penal Code. Thereafter the complainant lodged F.I.R. and offence under Sections 353 and 506 of Indian Penal Code was registered. The complainant again lodged F.I.R. after 45 days and offence in question was registered against the applicant. According to him, F.I.R. is delayed and has been lodged only with a view to 2 take vengeance against the applicant. I have gone through the first information report in question and I find that there is prima facie case against the applicant. The abuses in question, which I have seen, are against Pardhi ladies. The submission made by the learned counsel for the applicant is a matter of appreciation of evidence. In view of the above, I do not find any merit in the present application and the same is dismissed. JUDGE /TA/ 3
