Claiman Town District Dehradun Hon’ble J.C. S. Rawat, J. Heard Mr. Pawan Kumar learned counsel for the applicant and Mr. Nandan Arya, learned A.G.A. for the State. Perused the record. Learned counsel for the applicant contended that the photograph which has been affixed on the forged power of attorney was of the applicant-accused, but the offence under section 420 IPC is not made out against the present applicant-accused.
